FORMER DUKE CENTER TRANSFERS TO CLEMSON
CLEMSON, S.C. — Head Coach Brad Brownell and his staff have officially announced the addition of Christian Reeves (Charlotte, N.C./Oak Hill (Va.)/Duke) to the Clemson Tigers basketball team. Reeves will have three years of eligibility starting in the 2024-25 season.
Reeves joins Jaeden Zackery (Salem, Wis./Westosha Central/Boston College) and Viktor Lakhin (Anapa, Russia/CSKA-2/Cincinnati) as the latest transfers to be officially added to the Tiger roster last week.
These three transfers will be joining a freshmen class that includes Dallas Thomas (Little Rock, Ark./Parkview Magnet), Del Jones (Largo, Md./Arizona Compass Prep), and Ace Buckner (Cleveland, Ohio/La Lumiere School). The freshmen class is ranked No. 20 in the country by 247Sports.
“I’m excited that Christian chose Clemson and I know our staff is looking forward to the opportunity to work with him and continue his development,” said Brownell. “He has great size, can rebound, block shots and has the potential to become an elite rim protector and more.”
During his time at Duke, Reeves played in 13 games as a rookie in the 2021-22 season, including six in ACC play. In his limited career action (16 games), Reeves has shot 10-for-14 (.714) from the field with 18 total rebounds, 10 of which were offensive, and 25 points scored.
Reeves’ career-high of six points came on a perfect 3-for-3 shooting performance in just six minutes against Pittsburgh in the 2023 ACC Tournament.
Prior to Duke, Reeves was a four-star center prospect out of Oak Hill Academy. He was ranked the No. 5 player from the state of North Carolina in his class by ESPN. In 29 games at Oak Hill, he averaged 9.2 points on .639 shooting with 7.4 rebounds per game.
