 GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Al Horford returned to Florida this season in hopes of repeating as national champions, improving his game and getting better prepared for the NBA. He already has accomplished two of the three.
Horford scored a career-high 22 points to go along with 13 rebounds, five assists and three blocks that helped the top-ranked Gators beat Tennessee 94-78 Saturday and extend the nation's longest winning streak to 14 games.
"Coming back definitely helped me and made a big difference," Horford said. "I didn't feel like I was ready for the NBA and all the road trips. I felt like another year would make me more mature."
