2024 Tournament PreviewThat Gators snapped a two-year NCAA Tournament drought after advancing to the SEC tournament final. An up-tempo attack has Florida ranked 13th in the nation in offensive efficiency (per KenPom). Four players in the eight-man rotation average double figures, led by upperclassmen guards Walter Clayton (17.3 ppg) and Zyon Pullin (15.6 ppg, 5.0 apg). Clayton shoots 36.7 percent on 240 3-point attempts. The X-factor, though, is second-chance points, as 6-10 Tyrese Samuel (14.0 ppg, 7.6 rpg) and 7-1 Micah Handlogten (5.5 ppg, 7.1 rpg) helped Florida rank sixth nationally in offensive rebounding rate. But Handlogten fractured his leg in the conference tournament loss, which likely means 6-11 freshman Alex Condon (7.8 ppg, 6.3 rpg) will have to pick up the slack. Defense is much less formidable (87th, per KenPom) as the Gators rarely force turnovers (320th), but the team's offensive prowess, which propelled it to 10 wins between Quads 1 and 2, should get Florida to at least the second weekend.
