Clemson Tigers at South Carolina Gamecocks

Murray-Boyles' 22 points, Ugusuk's 3 in OT lead South Carolina to 91-88 win over No. 25 Clemson

South Carolina (8-3) seemed to have things in hand, ahead 76-69 in the final two minutes of regulation. But Chase Hunter had three 3-pointers down the stretch, including a bank shot with 0.3 seconds left that tied it at 80 and forced the extra period.

Ugusuk hit a 3-pointer and Murray-Boyles followed with a pair of foul shots to extend the lead.

Duke transfer Christian Reeves had two foul shots for Clemson (9-3) down 89-87 with 3.7 seconds to go. But he missed the first one and his line drive attempt banked in. Jamarii Thomas was quickly fouled by the Tigers and made both.

Hunter's floating 3-pointer at the buzzer came up short as South Carolina won its fifth straight.

Hunter finished with 27 points and Schieffelin had 23 points and 12 rebounds before fouling out in overtime.

Stute finished with 19 points for the Gamecocks.
