No. 6 Clemson's Upset of Ja'Kobe Walter, No. 3 Baylor Thrills March Madness Fans

The Clemson Tigers impressed fans with a 72-64 upset of No. 3 Baylor in the Round of 32 on Sunday.

Baylor guard Ja'Kobe Walter, ranked No. 15 in the 2024 NBA Mock Draft by Jonathan Wasserman for Bleacher Report, recorded 20 points but shot 5-for-11 on free throws in the loss.

The dominance by Clemson's offense started early. The Tigers grabbed the first basket of the game and maintained the lead all the way through the first half.

By halftime, Clemson held a double-digit lead even with PJ Hall and Ian Schieffelin periodically sidelined due to foul trouble.
