With the departure of two senior guards, Clemson head coach Brad Brownell was looking for backcourt depth and he found just that with the addition of Fordham transfer Nick Honor.
Honor just completed an All-Rookie season at Fordham, appearing in all 32 games and averaging 36.1 minutes per contest. He led the Rams in scoring (15.3 points per game) and finished 37.3 percent from the floor, 33.2 percent from distance, including an impressive 81.6 percent from the foul line.
However, after an incident with his mother, the Orlando (FL) native was looking to get a little closer to home.
