CLEMSON — Miami came into Saturday’s matchup with No. 22 Clemson boasting one of the best offensive units in the country. The Hurricanes were averaging 87 points per game and 82.3 points per night in their first four ACC games.
With Tre Donaldson running the show, and Malik Reneau dominating the paint, Miami appeared to be unstoppable. However, there is always something that can stop a good offense – a good defense.
The Tigers have that defense.
Clemson forced 12 steals and held the Hurricanes to 25-percent shooting (6-24) from 3-point range, in a 69-59 victory at Littlejohn Coliseum.
