The Florida men’s basketball team is gearing up for the 2023 season with tipoff less than a week away.
Second-year head coach Todd Golden has slowly been building his team through a strong recruiting class and the transfer portal, hoping to create an organic chemistry between relatively young players.
Here at Gators Wire, we took a deep dive into the front and backcourt positions, highlighting what each player brings to the table this season.
There are only five members of the Florida Gators backcourt, made up of two transfers, two freshmen and a sophomore.
Golden said he knew it would take a lot of work to replace last year’s leading scorer Colin Castleton, who’s now playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, but the coach thinks they did a good job doing that.
Let’s take a look at what Golden is bringing to the table for the Gators’ 2023 backcourt and who will make the most impact.
