Alabama guard Aden Holloway was arrested Monday for possession of marijuana and allegedly had 2.1 pounds in his apartment.

Prosecutors said they found evidence of "drug transactions" on his phone, according to ESPN, 

"Holloway had smaller denominations in his possession, which is indicative of narcotic sales. The marijuana was in separate packing, from plastic bags to prepackaged marijuana to vacuum sealed bags," a complaint said, via ESPN.

The complaint added that "people [texted] that they were going to get up with him after the season."

According to ESPN, police found $400 that was located in a jacket during a search of his home. The search, which included an inspection of Holloway's trash, came after police received "complaints," ESPN said, citing the search warrant. 

However, Holloway's attorney told ESPN the search was unconstitutional, and he would fight to ensure that prosecutors cannot use what they found in the legal proceedings.

Holloway, 21, was arrested and charged with first-degree possession of marijuana and failure to affix a tax stamp. He was transported to the Tuscaloosa County Jail Monday at 9:48 a.m. and later released at 10:45 a.m. His bond was set at $5,000.

Holloway was a key piece of Alabama’s success this season, averaging 16.8 points per game as the team’s second-leading scorer. In his last game, an SEC Tournament quarterfinal loss to Ole Miss, he dropped 18 points in the 80-79 defeat.
