Alabama guard Aden Holloway was reportedly arrested earlier on Monday after authorities allegedly found over a pound of marijuana during a narcotics search at a residence in Tuscaloosa. Per reports, Holloway was charged with first-degree possession of marijuana, as well as failure to affix a tax stamp.
The Alabama junior was taken to Tuscaloosa County jail after agents also recovered drug paraphernalia and cash from the residence. Holloway’s bond was set at $5,000.
According to Polson Law Firm, Holloway could face up to 10 years in a state penitentiary and up to a $15,000 fine if he is convicted. The Tide guard could also reportedly receive a six-month driver’s license suspension and have to take mandatory drug-awareness classes.
Holloway began his collegiate career at Auburn in 2023. He transferred to Alabama in 2024 after playing one season with the Tigers.
