Multiple season highs in return Clark (illness) logged seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five assists, three steals and one rebound across his 28 minutes during Clemson's 90-75 win Tuesday against Syracuse.
Impact After sitting out a game due to illness, Clark marked his return with multiple season highs Tuesday. He logged them in assists and steals. The former is a complete surprise, considering Clark has never averaged multiple assists across any of his five seasons thus far. The latter is only somewhat surprising, considering he averaged 1.7 steals with North Carolina State before his transfer to Clemson, where his rate in the category has dipped.

Having already proven himself for an ACC team, Clark is expected to be part of Clemson's starting frontcourt on a frequent basis.

Continues to battle groin injury Coach Brad Brownell said Clark is still battling a groin injury and hasn't been able to do much, Brian Murphy of WRAL News reports.
Impact Clark underwent a sports hernia surgery in the offseason and it's unclear when he will be ready to return to full contact. Clark was picked up in the offseason from NC State and was expected to be a big contributor in the frontcourt. Jake Heidbreder and Ian Schieffelin may see more minutes early in the season why Clark works his way back.

The 6-8 senior hasn't started since Dec. 30 but has picked up his scoring lately, averaging 10.4 points and 5.6 rebounds over his last five games.

Impact Clark came off the bench in what was his second game back since returning from a hip injury, but he saw a starter's workload, compared to just four minutes for starting power forward Greg Gantt. Given this level of activity and production, it wouldn't be surprising to see Clark back in the starting five in short order. He did start the first 15 games of the season for the Wolfpack, averaging 9.1 points and 7.3 rebounds across 28.3 minutes during that stretch.
