It’s always a good night when Alex Klatksy takes the court for the Florida Gators.
For the more casual Gators hoops fan, Klatsky is the most beloved walk-on on the roster. If fans are chanting his name, it can only mean one thing: Florida is up BIG.
A 39-point victory isn’t quite as sweet as a 40-point one, but it does qualify as a big win. Florida took care of Grambling State, 96-57, on Friday, in a game that was never close.
What makes the outcome even more satisfying for Florida is that star player Riley Kugel spent the entirety of the game on the bench, recovering from a bruised foot. Kugel should be fine with some rest, and the team clearly didn’t need him to get the job done.
Here’s what the win means for Florida.
