In recent seasons, most big games for Clemson Men’s Basketball have resulted in an “L” and that looked to be what was about to happen Saturday in Pittsburgh.
But the Tigers showed their grit, outscoring Pitt 13-5 to win the game and take over sole possession of first place in the ACC.
I was impressed by the coaching and by the contributions of every player that played for the Tigers. This is not a deep team, but everyone contributes on most nights.
Of the 10 players who saw time, 9 scored, with only Dillon Hunter going scoreless in his 9:02 on the court, but he did contribute a steal.
