Javier Gil

Self-described as a driven, dedicated professional in the world of collegiate basketball, Javier Gil joined Florida National’s men’s basketball staff during the 2025-26 season as a volunteer assistant. 

Before bringing his talents to FNU, Gil put in long hours as an equipment manager for Florida International University. His time with the Panthers made him well-versed in managing equipment, uniforms, locker rooms, and player logistics, ensuring teams are prepared to perform at a high level. In this role with FIU, he was also able to contribute to player development through one-on-one skill work, film breakdown, scouting reports and daily practice preparation. 

The summer of 2025 saw Gil lend his time to team Level Up in the Miami Pro League, working with top professional players from around the world.  

Since becoming a member of head coach Daniel Pressman’s staff, Gil has helped Pressman build a culture of discipline and teamwork at all levels of the team. He currently leads the program’s junior varsity (development) team and helped the squad garner a third-place finish at the URBE Thanksgiving Classic. 

A native of Miami, Fla., Gil is currently pursuing his bachelor's in sports management from FIU.
