Miami's Sheldon McClellan is the ACC's most efficient scorer while Pittsburgh's James Robinson is the conference's most effective ballhandler. "He's very, very efficient, he's very unselfish, he's very team-oriented and he's just a fun kid to be around," coach Jim Larranaga said. McClellan was mostly on target in two victories for Miami (18-4, 7-3) last week, making 12 of 15 including all four 3-pointers. Continue to Article

After further humbling one of the ACC's afflicted traditional powers, Miami is gearing up for an opponent that can't dip much lower. Saturday's visit to North Carolina State has the 15th-ranked Hurricanes in position to run their winning streak to four, while the Wolfpack could match 2014-15's loss total in the league less than halfway into the conference slate. Miami's latest step forward was Monday's 80-69 home win over No. 24 Duke with Angel Rodriguez scoring 13 points with a career-high 11 assists for his first double-double with the Hurricanes, while Sheldon McClellan had 21 points.
