    Alabama sophomore guard Jahlil Bethea suffered a broken pinky toe and underwent surgery.

    “Jalil Bethea injured his left foot during practice this week, which required surgery to repair,” head coach Nate Oats said, per Yea Alabama. “The procedure was performed by Dr. Norman Waldrop with Andrews Sports Medicine on Friday, Sept. 19th in Birmingham. While there is no timetable for Bethea’s return, we do not anticipate this injury is season ending and we expect him to return this year.”

    Bethea could return by late November, one source told ZAGSBLOG.

    The 6-foot-5 guard from Philadelphia averaged 7.1 points and 2.1 rebounds last season at Miami before transferring this spring to Alabama.
