Urban Klavzar Cleared to Play for Gators

Florida guard Urban Klavzar has been cleared by the NCAA to play for the Gators, making his collegiate debut against Florida State. Klavzar, a 6-foot-1 guard from Slovenia, was classified as a sophomore and will have three seasons of eligibility remaining. He previously played professionally in Spain and Slovenia, raising eligibility concerns that delayed his debut. Coach Todd Golden is pleased with the decision, as Klavzar adds depth and a scoring boost to the Gators' backcourt, which includes standout players like Walter Clayton Jr. Despite the NCAA's clearance, integrating Klavzar into the team will take some time as the Gators adjust their roster. Klavzar's professional experience and international play are expected to enhance the team's performance, particularly in 3-point shooting.
