JaMychal Green scored a game-high 23 points as the Crimson Tide made Pepperdine's first visit to Alabama a miserable one with a 83-60 victory over the Waves on Tuesday night.
Green, a junior forward, also had nine rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals as Alabama (7-6) had five players score in double figures. Tony Mitchell added 17 points, followed by 15 from Charvez Davis.
The Crimson Tide took control early as three straight dunks - capped by Mitchell's rim shaker - put the Crimson Tide ahead 23-7 with 11:26 left in the first half.
Davis, who was 5 for 10 from 3-point range, gave the Crimson Tide a 57-32 lead with 16:40 left, and the Waves would get no closer than 23 points the rest of the way.
Keion Bell scored 15 points for the Waves (5-10), who will play at Miami on Thursday.
Alabama will play its final non-conference game Monday against Toledo.
