Thursday, November 14, 2024 | Men's Basketball
The Florida men's basketball team signed elite in-state guard Alex Lloyd out of Fort Lauderdale, head coach Todd Golden announced on Thursday.
"We are thrilled to welcome Alex Lloyd and his family into our Gator basketball program," Golden said. "Alex is one of the best high school guards in the country, and we are really excited to add him to our group. He comes from a great family, and he has always been passionate about joining our program. There is no doubt he will have great success within our program."
Lloyd, a four-star signee, comes to the Gators from Westminster Academy in Fort Lauderdale and is ESPN's No. 34-ranked player in the class. Lloyd, at 6-foot-4, helped lead Westminster to the 3A state regional finals in 2023-24.
Golden and the UF coaching staff have continued to put emphasis on players from the state of Florida, as the current roster features Denzel Aberdeen (Orlando), Sam Alexis (Apopka), Isaiah Brown (Orlando) and Walter Clayton Jr. (Lake Wales).
Florida has opened its 2024-25 campaign with a 3-0 record and visits Florida State on Friday at 6 p.m. on ACC Network.
