Chauncey Wiggins on why he chose Clemson

“I like Coach Brad Brownell and I like the assistant coaches,” Wiggins said. “I’ve built a good relationship with all of them. Their development is big time too. I like Coach Brownell’s coaching style as well. When I went on my visit, I was watching Hunter Tyson and I was seeing ways I could be like him. The academic support is there, with all the academic advisors. I like the culture too.”

What can Wiggins contribute to the team?

“I just want to get in there and play hard,” Wiggins said. “No matter how many minutes I get. I just gotta play hard. I want to bring the team versatility, defense, shooting, and being able to rebound and then push the ball.”
