About this episode

The Florida Gators have secured Slovenian forward Domen Petrovic for their 2026-27 roster.

Florida Gators mens basketball secures Slovenian forward Domen Petrovic for the 2026-27 roster, marking their second international signee. Petrovic, a 22-year-old six-foot-nine standout, averaged 16.6 points and shot nearly 40% from deep in Slovenias top pro league last season. He previously teamed up with current Gator guard Urban Klavžar on Slovenias U-20 squad. Coach Todd Golden is excited about Petrovics size, skills, and winning attitude, which will bolster the frontcourt alongside Lithuanian Arturas Butajevas, seven-foot freshman center Jones Lay, and transfer guard Denzel Aberdeen. The team is also hoping for NBA Draft prospect Rueben Chinyelus return. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
