The 6-foot-11 big man averaged 15.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 blocks on 30.6 minutes across 34 starts this past campaign.

Scores 21, deals seven dimes Condon notched 21 points (8-13 FG, 5-9 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's 73-72 loss to Iowa.

Impact Condon had a very effective game and led the Gators in scoring after being held to 13 points in each of his previous two games. He was able to take advantage of his size against the smaller Hawkeyes and keyed a second half comeback in which the Gators almost seized the game. The 6-11 junior will have an interesting decision to make on whether to return to school.
