CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) -- Andre Young had 19 points off three 3-pointers to lift Clemson to its second straight win in a 71-60 victory over Wake Forest on Saturday.

Devin Booker scored 16 points and Tanner Smith added 13 for the Tigers (11-9, 3-3 Atlantic Coast Conference), who shook off an awful start to send Wake Forest to its fifth loss in five games.

Clemson took control with a 13-4 run early in the second half where Young scored six points and Booker had four. The Tigers pressured the Demon Deacons (11-10, 2-5) into four straight turnovers during the stretch, scoring off each one to move in front 51-39 with 12:25 to play.

Wake Forest never got closer than 10 points the rest of the way.

C.J. Harris scored 19 points to lead the Demon Deacons.
