    I agree, best NBA Gator ever - in terms of stats - but definitely not in terms of overall success (at least not until he gets a ring). He has great stats on a terrible team.

    Beal is the best NBA Gator by far. Miller was good but he was more of a role player.

    Those are very good numbers! Good for Beal.
    But 5 games does not make an NBA career. IMO

    Dude has been balling this year. He just got engaged too. And had a 2nd son born in 2019. Dude is living his best life right now, even though his team is not much of a threat.

    Miller had a great career and was super-talented IMHO. So talented that I think he could have been a bigger star player if he had been in the right place/right time and/or been more aggressive with his game. I think he could have played almost like a Grant Hill (when Hill was healthy of course) with his combination of shooting, passing and ballhandling skills. When he was put in the position of being the primary ballhandler (which did happen at times), he always showed amazing passing skills. And, he could put the ball in the hoop with the best of them.

    David Lee was also very talented, but also didn't seem that aggressive. Another great career, but could have been better?

    To me, Horford and Mad Max have had the best careers (as being a force in the NBA). But, Beal is coming on strong.

    By the accolades, I think Big AL has been UF's most successful career NBA player.
    Big AL has been a 5x NBA All-Star.
    Mikey Miller was never an NBA All-Star, yet has 2x NBA rings.
    Joakim was a 2x NBA All-Star.

    So, from what I see, AL Horford is the most accomplished Gator so far, although Bradley Beal has awesome potential and could eventually eclipse him. I am cheering for BB!

    Maybe not the best, but Udonis has had a great and, I assume, the longest nba career.

    Holds the Heat record for career rebounds. Udonis has been instrumental in Miami. Plus some nice jewelry to go along with his record.

    Brad unfortunately didn't make the All Star team. He really needs to get out of Washington.

    Horford until Beal does it consistently for more years.

    How can this happen? Bet guys at ESPN don’t even mention it.
