“I love being a Florida Gator,” Klavžar told Florida Victorious. “I love the coaching staff, my teammates — just living in Gainesville has probably been one of the best times of my life. It’s really awesome here. It was a tough loss in the second round as well, and I really want to run it back with my teammates and try to win a championship again. In general, I just love playing here.”

The 6-foot-1 guard from Domžale, Slovenia, appeared in 35 games, averaged 9.6 points in 20.7 minutes per game, shot 40.6% from and registered 90.3% from the free-throw line.

The news comes after Boogie Fland also announced his return to the program earlier in the day.
