Alex Condon confirmed he will be back with the Gators for his senior season in 2026-27.

Condon ​was the team’s leading scorer ‌last season, when Florida entered the NCAA Tournament as a No. 1 seed but fell in the Elite Eight against No. ‌9 ​seed Iowa in a ⁠bid to repeat ⁠as national champions.

The 6-11 forward shared the news Wednesday afternoon via Instagram with a photo inscribed “back to work.” ​Under the image, Condon wrote “one more.”

Condon averaged 15.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, ⁠3.6 assists and ⁠1.4 blocks per game last ​season and was part of the 2025 ​national title team under head coach ‌Todd Golden.

After the upset loss to Iowa, Condon said he was “50-50” to return for a final season. ESPN ⁠rankings placed him at No. 30 overall among potential 2026 NBA draft picks.

Florida has not ⁠received ‌commitments to return from NBA ⁠prospects Thomas Haugh and ​Rueben ‌Chinyelu. Haugh is projected as ​a top-20 ⁠pick in the draft if he chooses to declare.

Condon has 70 starts in three seasons (107 total games) since joining Florida from Perth, Australia, in 2023.
