As debates arise regarding Walter Clayton Jr.'s status as one of Florida's all-time greats, one former Gator has given credit to the outgoing senior.

The 6-foot-3 Clayton, an Associated Press first-team All-American who started his career under Rick Pitino at Iona, is averaging 24.6 points through the five NCAA games, with his 123 points standing 18 more than Duke star freshman and AP national player of the year Cooper Flagg as the next-closest player.
