KANSAS CITY — There may be no hotter player this postseason than Oregon's Tyler Dorsey, nor a hotter team than Michigan.
Something will have to give Thursday, when the NCAA Tournament Midwest Region No. 3 seed Ducks face the seventh-seeded Wolverines in a Sweet Sixteen matchup.
After going the entire season without scoring 20 points in consecutive games, Dorsey has surpassed that mark in all five UO postseason games. He's averaging 23.6 points per game in the Pac-12 and NCAA tournaments, and hit the game-tying and game-winning three-pointers Sunday against Rhode Island in the second round.
