After a disappointing ending to the 2020-21 basketball season in the Round of 64 during the NCAA Basketball Tournament, Brad Brownell and his Clemson Tigers basketball team are back and preparing for another season inside of Littlejohn Coliseum. Clemson ended their season with a loss to Rutgers to open March Madness last year, and as it went during much of the season, could not buy a bucket down the stretch during the waning moments of a game as they saw their season come to an end.
Brownell will have to replace the heart and soul of the team last year, with forward Aamir Simms signing with the New York Knicks as an undrafted free agent for the upcoming NBA season.
