CLEMSON, SC (AP) -- Trevor Booker scored a season-high 31 points and his brother Devin added 10 to lead No. 24 Clemson to a 79-57 victory over Western Carolina on Tuesday night.

The Tigers (11-2) have won four straight, each by double digits. But this one took a while to put away.

The Catamounts (10-2) trailed 56-51 with 8 minutes to go when the Bookers took over. Clemson would score the next 19 points, with Trevor and Devin each scoring six during the run.

Western Carolina missed 10 straight 3-pointers during the run and by the time Harouna Mutombo hit a 3 with 1:05 left, the Catamounts were down 75-54.

Mutombo led Western Carolina with 19 points.
