LAS VEGAS -- It was finally MiKyle McIntosh's time.
He's had big games before for Oregon, like the time he was the Ducks' only defense against Deandre Ayton in an eventual loss at Arizona.
After that one, he said standout performance wasn't quite the reason why he transferred to Oregon this summer. He didn't transfer to Oregon to shine in a loss.
So here he was in the Pac-12 tournament's quarterfinal, scoring a circus-like and-1 to put the Ducks up 68-66 over Utah in a game Oregon had no business being in.
This, McIntosh said, was more like.
