TIGER TRACKS

• A win Tuesday would be the Tigers’ fifth over a ranked ACC team this season, which would be the most since the 1979-80 team also defeated five top-25 teams.

• Clemson is in search of its first top-five win since 2008-09 vs. Duke.

• The Tigers need just five three-point goals to post their highest season total since the 2008-09 season. Clemson has 213 makes and is third in the ACC in three-point goals per game.

• Clemson’s 1.33 assist-turnover ratio is the best mark by any Tiger team since the 1983-84 squad posted a 1.34 ratio.

• Jaron Blossomgame has scored 326 points in ACC play, fifth-most in Clemson history. His average of 20.4 per game is seventh-best over a season.

• Donte Grantham produced 16 points in his last outing, all in the second half against Georgia Tech. He leads the Tigers with 52 three-pointers, most by a Clemson player since the 2011-12 season.

• Ty Hudson sparked Clemson in its most recent game at Georgia Tech, scoring an ACC-high eight points in a five-minute stretch during the first half.
