The early signing period for basketball is next week, and Clemson basketball coach Brad Brownell will be signing three guards to help offset the loss of this year’s starting backcourt.
On Friday, 6-foot-4 Alex Hemenway of Newburgh, Indiana, committed to the Tigers over Creighton, DePaul and Belmont. He joins 6-foot-3 Chase Hunter and 6-foot-1 Al-Amir Dawes in the Tigers’ class.
