Clemson basketball is gearing up for its first of three exhibition games during its tour of Italy this summer.
The Tigers are spending 10 days in Italy from July 27-Aug. 6. They will makes stops in Rome, Florence and Como and play a game in each city.
The first game is July 29 in Rome against BC Silute. Clemson will play against Pro Camp in Florence on Aug. 1 and finish its game slate on Aug. 4 against Orange Bassano in Como. Each game will start at 12:30 p.m. ET and broadcast on WCCP 105.5 and the Clemson Tigers app.
BC Silute is a member of the Lithuanian A2 League. Pro Camp is an A2 and B1 Italian select team, and Orange Bassano is the Italian U20 national team.
Excluding the 2019 World University Games, this is the fourth international trip Clemson has taken under coach Brad Brownell. The Tigers previously went to Italy in 2013, Spain in 2017 and France in 2022.
Clemson finished 24-11 last season, falling to No. 9 seed Iowa in the first round of the NCAA Tournament as a No. 8 seed.
The Tigers have already announced several matchups for the 2026-27 season, including Nov. 13 against Georgetown and Dec. 1 against Auburn in the ACC/SEC Challenge. Both are home games.
The Tigers have added four players from the transfer portal, including San Francisco forward David Fuchs and Samford forward Dylan Faulkner, both of whom won all-conference honors in their respective conferences.
