Charles Bediako Appeals NCAA Eligibility to Supreme Court

Basketball center Charles Bediako is asking the Alabama Supreme Court to let him play the rest of the season for the Crimson Tide. He appealed a judge's recent decision that ended his temporary playing status with the University of Alabama. Bediako, a recent NBA G-League player, previously averaged 6.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks in two seasons at Alabama. His lawyers argue he remains within his five-year college eligibility window and are seeking interim relief to allow him to return to play before the season concludes.
