Former Alabama standout Collin Sexton made his pro debut on Friday night in the Cleveland Cavaliers' 72-59 victory over the Washington Wizards in the NBA's Las Vegas Summer League.

In 29 minutes on the court, Sexton scored 15 points, grabbed seven rebounds and made one steal. He sank 4-of-12 shots, including his only 3-pointer, and went 6-for-6 at the free-throw line.

The Cavaliers selected Sexton with the eighth pick in the NBA Draft on June 24. He was the first Alabama player selected in the NBA Draft since Richard Hendrix in 2008 and the first Crimson Tide player taken in the first round since Gerald Wallace in 2001.

"It was exciting. When you first get out there, you've just got to get the jitters and excitement out of you... After that it's go time.'
