The Oregon Ducks will once again be without their leading scorer on Saturday morning in their second-round NIT game against the Texas A&M Aggies. According to a UO spokesperson, senior guard Will Richardson did not travel with the team to College Station for the game, which tips at 9:00 a.m. PT on ESPN.
Richardson missed the first game of the NIT, as well as the Pac-12 tournament with a “non-COVID illness.”
On a brighter note, center N’Faly Dante did travel with the team and take part in practice on Friday. Dante missed Oregon’s first-round NIT game against Utah State after coming down with the flu, per Dana Altman.
The winner of Oregon and Texas A&M will face the winner of VCU and Wake Forest in a quarterfinal on Tuesday or Wednesday.
