CLEMSON BASKETBALL HEADLINES

• This will mark Clemson’s third game against Yale all-time. The Tigers are 1-1 against the Bulldogs in their history.

• In Brad Brownell’s tenure as head coach at Clemson, the Tigers are a combined 45-2 when they allow 50 or less points to its opponent. The Tigers have won their last 24 contests in which they have allowed 50 or less points (24-0).

• Most recently, the Tigers held Jacksonville to just 39 total points (only 11 in the second half) en route to a 68-39 victory.

• Taking it one step further, Clemson has allowed 40 points or less on nine occasions during Brownell’s tenure as head coach. The Tigers have accomplished this feat twice during ACC play, while the other seven contests have been out-of-conference games.

• Clemson allowed just 11 second half points against the Dolphins – the least amount allowed under Brownell at Clemson in a second half.

• Clyde Trapp made his much anticipated return from a torn ACL on Dec. 20 against Jacksonville. Trapp, who tore his ACL on June 28, scored four points and dished two assists in the 29-point win over the Dolphins.

• Aamir Simms notched his eighth double-digit scoring game of the season with 18 points on 7-of-8 shooting.
