You Tube Gold: DaveMcClure’s Finest Moment

Dave McClure was a player we always liked. He had a tendency to just do things right. Coach K said he he “made simple, great plays.”

He wasn’t an overwhelming talent and he had some injury issues. When he was right though he was a highly intelligent player who really helped his team excel.

He was also part of one of the greatest plays in Duke history.

Oliver Purnell brought his #19 Clemson team to Cameron in 2007 and gave #10 Duke a really tough game. With time winding down, Clemson hit a layup to cut the lead to 66-64.
