LAS VEGAS — After a cold start offensively, the Oregon men's basketball team exploded to a 91-71 victory Thursday over Arizona State in the quarterfinals of the Pac-12 Tournament at T-Mobile Arena.
The top-seeded Ducks (20-5) shot 59 percent in the game despite a 2-of-10 start against the Sun Devils, who were in rhythm early after playing in the opening round Wednesday. ASU held UO leading scorer Chris Duarte to six points, but LJ Figueroa scored a season-high 21 to lead the Ducks, Will Richardson had 17 points and Eugene Omoruyi finished with 15.
