The college basketball season has officially concluded.

During the NCAA Tournament, all four No. 1 seeds made it to the Final Four, but only one team was left standing as national champions.

Duke, Houston, Auburn and Florida all entered the Final Four with hopes of hoisting the national title trophy. The Gators ultimately came out on top, having defeated Houston in the national title game.

Following a championship win for Florida, head coach Todd Golden and his staff received more good news.

On Wednesday, Florida was predicted to land one of the top players in the transfer portal, Princeton guard Xaivian Lee, per On3.

On3's Jamie Shaw logged the prediction with a confidence level of 60%.

Lee recently visited the program, having also spent time with the Kansas Jayhawks and the St. John's Red Storm during the recruiting period.

Lee is fresh off his third season with the Princeton Tigers. This past season, Lee posted 16.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game.

In his three-year career at Princeton, Lee averaged 12.7 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game.

While Lee has yet to make a transfer portal decision, the Florida Gators certainly seem to be trending for one of the more talented guards on the board.
