Clemson (12-11, 4-8 ACC, 67 KenPom ranking) has a quick turnaround from a tough home loss to North Carolina on Tuesday when it hosts No. 7-ranked Duke (19-4, 9-4, 11 KenPom) on Thursday.

The 8 p.m. contest will be televised on ACCN with Mike Couzens and Debbie Antonelli calling the action, while Don Munson and Tim Bourret will call the action on the radio waves. The radio call will be available on the Clemson Athletic Network and ClemsonTigers.com.
