Several Oregon Basketball Players Earn All-Big Ten Selections
Dana Altman has one of the hottest teams in the country as we get ready for the Big Ten tournament. The Ducks have fared well in a very tough Big Ten conference this season. But especially well down the stretch with seven straight wins and some gritty late-game performances.
It’s been fueled by the performances of some key players for the Ducks. And those players were honored by the conference on Tuesday.

On the defensive side of the ball, TJ Bamba and Nate Bittle earned Big Ten All-Defensive honors. Both have had huge impacts this season keeping Oregon in the game with opponents. Bamba has been a lock down defender on the perimeter in a number of big games. As for Bittle he has been a game-changer in the paint for Oregon all season long.
Meanwhile Bittle and Jackson Shelstad were listed on the All-conference third team. Shelstad has not only been Oregon’s point man this season leading the offense, he’s been Mr. Clutch in numerous late games.
Up next is the Big Ten tournament opener against Indiana Thursday at 9 AM PST.
