Looking Towards Gorjok Gak’s Return

One of the biggest questions entering Florida’s 2019-20 season will be what kind of production they can get from Gorjok Gak, their 6’11” 250 pound center who took a medical redshirt last year and fell out of the conversation when it came to Florida basketball. Having arthroscopic knee surgery after the 2017-18 season he was optimistically projected to be available for the start of the 2018-19 campaign but when his knee continued to swell after every workout well into the winter it was announced he would be sitting out the remainder of the year. Unfortunately the knee problem hasn’t been the only issue plaguing Gak throughout his career as foot issues also contributed to him missing practices and games in his first two years in orange and blue and realistically we have never really seen Gak play at 100% health or anything close to that.
