Clemens surprised many observers by making it all the way to the final round in ABC television's one-on-one NBA basketball tournament in 1973. Portland All-Star guard Geoff Petrie defeated ex-Knick Clemens in the championship game at Madison Square Garden on May 6, 1973. (www.apbr.org/forum/viewtopic.php?=1935)

In 2009, Clemens was inducted into the Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame. [1]
