CLEMSON, S.C. — Clemson University men’s basketball has announced its non-league schedule for the 2023-24 season, highlighted by six home games, including neutral site games in Asheville, N.C. and Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

The Tigers will host the in-state rivalry game against South Carolina. Clemson has won four-of-the-last-six matchups with the Gamecocks dating back to the 2016-17 season.

Clemson hosts Boise State in Littlejohn Coliseum this season. The Broncos have put together three 20-win campaigns in the last four seasons, including 51 victories over the last two years.

Clemson returns nearly 70.0 percent of its scoring from a season ago, which includes All-ACC performer PJ Hall (Spartanburg, S.C./Dorman) and Chase Hunter (Atlanta, Ga./Westlake). The Tigers have added four transfers to the roster and one freshman.

Joseph Girard III (Glens Falls, N.Y./Glens Falls) joined the Tigers after four seasons at Syracuse. Girard III combines with Hall to give Clemson the top two returning scorers in ACC play from a year ago.

Clemson returns eight scholarship players from last year’s team, in addition to four transfers and one freshman.

The Tigers won 23 games last season, including a program-best 14 ACC wins – the most conference victories in any conference in program history.

Clemson basketball season ticket renewal applications are now available through the athletic ticket office, with seats for the 2023-24 men’s basketball season as low as $199. The deadline for renewals is Sept. 7.
