As a freshman at MSU back in 2014-15, Clark set a freshman record by playing in all 39 games during Michigan State’s run to the Final Four. He drained 21 3-pointers that entire season. In seven starts he elevated his averages to 8.7 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.

Coming out of high school, he was also rated as high as 40th for his position by national recruiting services in the class of 2014. He averaged 20 points and nine rebounds for the Prep Team at Sunrise Christian Academy in Bel Aire, Kan., and helped lead the team to a 29-1 record in 2013-14.
