SAN JOSE, Calif. — As stats go, plus/minus is an imperfect measure of impact on a basketball game. But it sure does a fine job of illuminating the weekend Ehab Amin experienced in the opening rounds of the 2019 NCAA Tournament.
On Friday, in Oregon's first-round win over Wisconsin, Amin was statistically the Ducks' worst player; when he was on the court, the UO men were outscored by seven points. He played less than five minutes in the second half, as the Ducks rallied to break a halftime tie and advance to Sunday.
That second-round game Sunday, against UC Irvine, was a different story for Amin.
