Challenges, opportunities await Clemson basketball

SUNSET — It made sense Clemson basketball coach Brad Brownell held his annual media golf tournament some 40 minutes away from Clemson on Wednesday. Like the basketball team, he needs to make sure the media gets used to the 40-minute commute it will experience for home basketball games this year.

Brownell held his media golf outing at The Reserve on Lake Keowee in Sunset, S.C., as it officially tipped off the college basketball season in Clemson. The men’s basketball team started practice last week.

While Littlejohn Coliseum is in the middle of its $63.5 million upgrade, the Tigers will play all of their home games this year at The Bon Secours Wellness Arena (The Well) in Greenville, which is about 45 minutes from Clemson.
