GAINESVILLE- Rising junior forward/center Alex Condon will withdraw from the NBA Draft process and return to Florida, he announced via his social media accounts<https://x.com/AlexCondonn/status/1927402682647531867> on Tuesday. Condon was one of the NBA's invitees at the NBA Combine in Chicago.

(Franz Beard will have more on this later, as will Loren Meadows on his Lowdown podcast tonight.)

In his sophomore season, Condon posted seven double-doubles and earned coaches third-team All-Southeastern Conference honors. Condon posted 17 points and 10 rebounds in the Gators' win at No. 1 Auburn on Feb. 8. He closed the regular season with a pair of massive performances, posting 27 points and 10 rebounds in the win at No. 7 Alabama and tallying 17 points and 15 rebounds vs. Ole Miss.

Condon etched himself into Gator history with his dive on the loose ball at the end of the national championship game, capping a 12-point, seven-rebound, four-steal performance to help Florida claim the title. All four primary frontcourt players from that championship team will be back with the Gators in 2025-26, while the Gators' backcourt returns Urban Klavžar and Isaiah Brown and welcomes newcomers AJ Brown, Boogie Fland, CJ Ingram, Xaivian Lee and Alex Lloyd.
