This 5-9 guard is nation’s top scorer, and UM must try to stop him on Saturday

The smallest man on Campbell University’s roster will present the biggest challenge for the University of Miami basketball team on Saturday afternoon. Chris Clemons, a 5-9 senior guard, leads the nation in scoring with 31 points per game and the Hurricanes will try to stop him in their final non-conference game.

Tipoff is 4 p.m. at the Watsco Center.

“He’s the leading scorer in the country, and people have told me -- I don’t get to see all the under 5-10 guys -- but people say he’s the best 5-10 or under player in the country,” said UM coach Jim Larranaga.
