Injury Report
Clemson forward Carter Welling is expected to miss the entire non-conference schedule with a knee injury, and guard Ace Buckner limped off late against Stetson, although he did not appear seriously hurt. American will again be without Dillon Hunter, who is out to start the season for reasons unrelated to injury. Eric Michaels returned from a full season out and scored 4 points in 20 minutes at Cincinnati, giving the Eagles another body in the frontcourt rotation.
Key Players
Key Matchup Edge
Clemson's balance and ball security are the edge. The Tigers shot 51 percent, made 26 free throws and committed only 8 turnovers against Stetson, while American shot 27.8 percent, went 7-of-29 from three and turned it over 18 times at Cincinnati. The Eagles were also outrebounded 48-32, so a repeat of that profile on the glass would leave them chasing.
3 Things to Watch
- American ball security after 18 turnovers
- Clemson frontcourt rebounding without Carter Welling
- Julen Iturbe three-point shooting in homecoming
Betting Breakdown
Clemson returns to Littlejohn Coliseum after an 85-72 win over Stetson in which the Tigers never trailed and got double figures from all five starters. Ace Buckner set a career high with 20 points, Samford transfer Dylan Faulkner posted 16 points, 11 rebounds and five assists in his debut, and Liutaurus Lelevicius, Cole Certa and David Fuchs each added at least 12. Brad Brownell's group, coming off a 24-11 season and a third straight NCAA Tournament trip, shot 51 percent and committed just eight turnovers. American arrives after a 79-53 loss at Cincinnati, where Madden Collins scored 20 points but the Eagles shot 27.8 percent, made 7 of 29 threes and lost the rebounding battle 48-32. Duane Simpkins is in his fourth season and the Eagles went 16-16 last year. Both teams are 0-1 against the spread, and Clemson won the only previous meeting 98-58 in 1977.
American Betting Outlook
American enters 0-1 after a rugged 79-53 loss at Cincinnati, where the Eagles shot just 27.8 percent from the field and 7 of 29 from three while committing 18 turnovers. Sophomore guard Madden Collins was the bright spot with 20 points, getting to the line 10 times, and Julen Iturbe added 10 points and seven rebounds. Preseason Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year Greg Jones scored 4 points, and Dean Hogans chipped in 8. Coming off a 16-16 season, Duane Simpkins needs cleaner possessions and better rebounding after a 48-32 deficit on the glass. Iturbe, a Greenville native whose parents both competed at Clemson, gets an emotional homecoming.
Clemson Betting Outlook
Clemson is 1-0 after an 85-72 win over Stetson in which the Tigers never trailed and all five starters scored in double figures. Ace Buckner led the way with a career-high 20 points, hitting 3 of 7 threes, while Dylan Faulkner delivered 16 points, 11 rebounds and five assists in his Clemson debut. Liutaurus Lelevicius and Cole Certa each scored 13, and David Fuchs added 12 on 5-of-6 shooting. The Tigers shot 51 percent, made 26 of 35 free throws and turned it over only eight times. Brad Brownell's team allowed Stetson to shoot 57.1 percent after halftime, so tightening second-half defense is the main item heading into this game.
