As a senior, Floyd averaged a Division II-high 31.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game for King. Floyd set the school single-game scoring record with 43 points in a win over Mount Olive.[7] He eclipsed his own record by scoring a career-high 47 points in a February 20, 2020 win over Erskine.[8] On March 3, 2020, he became King's all-time leading scorer, surpassing Mark Dockery.[9] Floyd was named Ron Lenz National Player of the Year, as well as Conference Carolinas Player of the Year for his second time.[10] He earned Division II All-American honors from the National Association of Basketball Coaches.[11]
