Sophomore guard Liv McGill, who led the Florida Gators in scoring, steals, and defensive rebounds last season, has announced she will enter the NCAA transfer portal. McGill's departure is an early blow to the Gators' lineup as they look to replace their 'Big 3' ahead of the new coach Tammi Reiss' first season.
Why it matters

She also set a program record by scoring 38 points in a home game against Chattanooga on Nov. 26. As the team's starting point guard, McGill anchored the offense and provided stability on the defensive end, leading the Gators in steals and defensive rebounds.
