How the 2025 NBA Draft Class Performed Against Alabama Last Season

Alabama's absence from the 2025 NBA Draft could influence betting outcomes as teams assess their potential future performance. With top prospects from rival programs majorly impacting their records, bettors may want to consider the Crimson Tide's strength of schedule in upcoming seasons, potentially leading to favorable odds in matchups against less competitive teams.

The 2025 NBA Draft concluded on Thursday night, but no Alabama players were selected among the 59 picks. That said, Chris Youngblood became the fourth and final member of Alabama's 2025 NBA Draft prospects to sign with a team (Oklahoma City Thunder), as he joins fellow Crimson Tide undrafted free agents Mark Sears, who agreed to a two-way deal with the Milwaukee Bucks and forward Grant Nelson, who is joining the Brooklyn Nets to compete for a two-way contract and center Clifford Omoruyi, who signed an Exhibit-10 deal with the Toronto Raptors.

The Crimson Tide has had the toughest strength of schedule in the country for back-to-back years. It's resulted in some losses, but Alabama's ability to build off the failure has led to back-to-back Elite Eight appearances. The first round of the 2025 NBA Draft was on Wednesday night in Brooklyn, N.Y., and the strength of Alabama's schedule (including the NCAA Tournament) became crystal clear as the names were announced.

The Crimson Tide faced 14 of the 30 first-round draft picks this past season and went head-to-head with 11 more players picked in the second round on Thursday. So, how did 25 of the 59 NBA Draft picks perform against Alabama this past season?
