Gators Forward Keyontae Johnson Will Return for Senior Season

Florida forward Keyontae Johnson, who collapsed during a Gators basketball game on Dec. 12, announced he will return for his senior season with the program.

In his announcement, Johnson said he was thankful for the "prayers and concerns" he received over the last four months.

"It is extremely touching and very much appreciated to have the support of Gator Nation and the world standing by my side." Johnson said. "I am progressing and steadily making progress daily in my health. I am patiently waiting on medical clearance. While speaking with my family, doctors, coaches, and athletic trainer, I've decided not to enter my name into the 2021 NBA Draft.
