Florida big man Alex Condon recorded a rare double-double against Jacksonville, finishing with at least 12 points, 12 rebounds, eight assists and three blocks. He became the first SEC player since Ben Simmons in 2015 to post a double-double with at least seven assists and three blocks, helping the No. 1 Gators improve to 2-0.

By the Numbers
  • Condon’s line with just under 7 minutes remaining: 12 points, 12 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 blocks.
  • Florida led Jacksonville 50-28 and moved to 2-0.
  • Simmons was the last SEC player to reach the assists-and-blocks benchmark, on Dec. 2, 2015.
State of Play
  • Florida entered the season ranked No. 1 and is seeking its second national championship in three years.
  • The Gators visit Florida State on Tuesday, then host Merrimack on Nov. 13.
Bottom Line

Condon’s unusual all-around production gives Florida an early standout performance, though tougher tests will show what the top-ranked Gators can sustain.
