It would be its second-straight and fifth all-time against Syracuse. • Alex Hemenway’s performance at Louisville was most notable with a career-high 8 points, including two threes in his first action since Nov. 7. • Beating Wake Forest gave Clemson at least a break-even record in the season series against all four ACC schools from the Tar Heel state. • It’s the first time since 1989-90 when Clemson was 1-1 vs. Duke, 1-1 vs. UNC, 1-1 vs. NC State and 3-0 vs. Wake Forest. • Clemson defeated No. 3/3 Duke on for its first win over an AP top-3 ranked opponent since North Carolina on Feb. 18, 2001. • With that win over Duke on Jan. 14, Head Coach Brad Brownell passed Cliff Ellis for the all-time wins mark in Clemson basketball history. • Clemson has been bitten by the injury bug in 2019, having many key players miss time due to injuries, which includes three starting players. • For much of the season, Clemson has had as few as eight scholarship players active. Clemson has had players miss 50 games this season. Projected lineups (--/--) Clemson Ht. Wt. Yr.
