Alex Condon puts off NBA and returns to Florida for senior season and run at another title

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Forward Alex Condon is returning to Florida for his senior season, giving him a final opportunity to boost his 3-point shooting before making the jump to the NBA. His decision that was announced Wednesday should improve the Gators' chances of winning another national championship. Coach Todd Golden’s team already had been installed as the third betting choice to win it all in 2027, a 10-1 shot according to BetMGM Sportsbook. Condon, a 6-foot-11 Australian, is the seventh player to re-sign with the Gators, following point guard Boogie Fland, shooting guard Urban Klavzar and role players Isaiah Brown, AJ Brown, Alex Lloyd and Alex Kovatchev. All-Southeastern Conference center Rueben Chinyelu is expected to do the same. The biggest unknown, though, is whether forward Thomas Haugh will join them for another year. Haugh, the team’s leading scorer, is widely considered a lottery pick but is considering putting off NBA riches in hopes of winning another title.
