Naz Bohannon converted a three-point play with 14 seconds left with his third go-ahead basket down the stretch as host Clemson beat Georgia Tech 68-65 on Wednesday night in Atlantic Coast Conference play.

David Collins scored 19 points on 8-for-10 shooting from the field and Bohannon finished with nine points for Clemson (15-15, 7-12 ACC). It's Clemson's first three-game winning streak since winning four straight prior to Christmas.

Michael Devoe scored 15 points, Kyle Sturdivant had 12 points and Rodney Howard added 11 for Georgia Tech (11-19, 4-15), which has a four-game losing streak. The Yellow Jackets dropped to 3-8 in road games and were unable to pull off a season sweep of the Tigers.

Sturdivant was off the mark on the game's last shot, ending up 2-for-7 on 3-point attempts.

Three times in the last 3:10, Bohannon scored to give Clemson the lead, including a 63-61 edge with 1:38 to play. Dallan Coleman's three-point play 20 seconds later put Georgia Tech back on top.

Then Collins scored with 56 seconds left only to have Howard make a tying free throw with 42 seconds left. Bohannon provided the final points of the game as he was fouled by Devoe.

Clemson's PJ Hall, who is first on the team in scoring, missed his third straight game with a foot injury. Hunter Tyson was back for the Tigers, posting eight points in a reserve role. Al-Amir Dawes also had eight points.

Clemson shot 52.8 percent from the floor and overcame 13 turnovers.

Georgia Tech held a 33-27 halftime lead and then threatened to pull away. A 9-0 run pushed the Yellow Jackets' lead to 49-36.

Clemson won for just the second time in the last six meetings with the Yellow Jackets, who shot 44.6 percent and were 7 of 21 from behind the arc.

Georgia Tech beat Clemson 69-64 in a Feb. 5 meeting at Atlanta, starting a six-game skid for the Tigers.
