Florida basketball’s Alex Condon has been named co-Southeastern Conference Player of the Week, the SEC announced on Monday, Feb. 2.
Condon shares the honor with Texas A&M’s Rashaun Agee.
Condon recorded a season-high of 25 points in the Gators’ win against 23rd-ranked Alabama. The forward also added seven rebounds, six assists, two steals and two blocked shots without a turnover. Condon is the first SEC player this century to hit all those marks in a game.
Earlier in the week, Condon posted 10 points, nine rebounds and eight assists.
The Perth, Australia, native picked up the honor for the first time this season and the fourth time in his career.
In addition, Condon is the third different Gator to claim the league’s weekly honor this season, along with Thomas Haugh and Rueben Chinyelu, who was named a Naismith Player of the Week earlier today.
This is the fourth time Florida has had three different players earn SEC Player of the Week accolades in a season, previously doing so in 2013-14 (Michael Frazier II, Casey Prather, Scottie Wilbekin), 2002-03 (Matt Bonner, Anthony Roberson, Matt Walsh) and 2000-01 (Teddy Dupay, Udonis Haslem, Brett Nelson).
