Current odds:

Oregon Ducks: (-130)

Arizona State Sun Devils: (+110)

 

• The spread for the game is Oregon by 2 points.

• Junior point guard Payton Pritchard, the lone returning starter from the Ducks’ 2017 Final Four squad, and 6-9 freshman forward Louis King each scored 20 points in the quarterfinal victory over Utah. Oregon held the Utes to 34 percent shooting, including 2-of-23 from 3-point range, and 6-9 freshman forward Francis Okoro tied a Pac-12 tournament record with six blocks. “Our defense contested most of their 3s,” Altman said. “We know they’re a good 3-point shooting team but I think our length bothered them on most of their 3s.”

• The Sun Devils had five players in double figures in the win over UCLA led by forward Romello White, who had 19 points and seven rebounds, while guard Rob Edwards – a transfer from Cleveland State – added 15 points including 3-of-5 3-pointers. Freshman guard Luguentz Dort earned Pac-12 Freshman of the Year and second-team all-Pac-12 honors, and leads the team in scoring (16.1) and steals (49). Sophomore guard Remy Martin is second in scoring (13.3) with forward Zylan Cheatham (11.7) and Edwards (11.2) also averaging in double figures.

• Since allowing UCLA to score 62 points in the second half of a 90-83 loss on Feb. 23, Oregon hasn’t allowed a team to score 62 points in a game.
