5 things to know about the Florida Gators

Starting at the four spot for the Florida Gators is sophomore forward Keyontae Johnson. Johnson stands at just 6’5″, but plays so much bigger, that he is a a really tough match up for any team. Kentucky will have a definite size advantage at the four, with both EJ Montgomery and Nate Sestina being far bigger than Johnson, but that also works both ways. Defending Johnson within Florida’s offense will be extremely difficult. Johnson is the leading scorer for Florida at 13.7 points per game and second in rebounding at 7 per game.

Johnson’s 53% shooting ranks second in the Southeastern Conference as he plays stronger in the post than his size suggests.
