Game notes

* Tuesday marks the 15th meeting between Florida and Missouri. UF leads the all-time series 10-4 with a 6-1 mark at home.

* UF swept last season’s home-and-home series against Missouri and has won all three meetings vs. the Tigers under Todd Golden. The Gators’ current four-game winning streak vs. Missouri matches the longest in series history.

* The Gators have won 16 straight home games, a streak that now extends more than a year. It is tied for the eighth-longest home winning streak in program history, and a win Tuesday would get to the midpoint of UF’s record of 33.

* Walter Clayton Jr. has made a 3-pointer in 39 straight games, tied with Lee Humphrey for the second-longest such streak in UF history, trailing only Michael Frazier II (41) in the Florida record books.

* Alex Condon posted back-to-back double-doubles against Tennessee and Arkansas, both with four assists and zero turnovers, to earn co-SEC Player of the Week honors.
