Photo Gallery: Oregon's Pac-12 tournament loss to UCLA
The Oregon Ducks’ NCAA Tournament hopes came to an end Friday evening with a blowout loss to UCLA.
The No. 2 Bruins topped the Ducks, 75-56, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to bounce Oregon out of the Pac-12 Tournament. With the loss, UO drops to 19-14 on the year and now appears headed for a second consecutive trip to the NIT.
“It’s not how we wanted to finish it up,” Oregon sophomore Nate Bittle said. “But it’s a great opportunity for us to come out and just compete more and play more. It’s a great opportunity for us to improve our own games.”
The Ducks will find out where their postseason journey begins when the NCAA Tournament selection show airs at 3 p.m. PT Sunday on CBS. The NIT selection show will air afterward at 6 p.m. PT on ESPNU.
UCLA senior point guard Tyger Campbell finished with a career-high 28 points, including 20 in the second half. Jaime Jaquez added 18 points and 10 rebounds for the Bruins.
