The Clemson men's basketball team (12-9, 4-6 ACC, 64 KenPom ranking) heads to Georgia Tech (9-12, 2-8, 154 KenPom) for a Saturday afternoon game after the Tigers notched a midweek win over Florida State, 75-69.

Tipoff in McCamish Pavilion is set for 2:04 p.m. ET. Tom Werme and Brian Oliver will call the broadcast for RSN. Don Munson and Tim Bourret will broadcast the game on the Clemson Athletic Network.

Senior starting Clemson forward Hunter Tyson was announced to be out indefinitely with a broken clavicle suffered on Wednesday.
