The Oregon Ducks announced on Friday that both N’Faly Dante and Nate Bittle underwent successful surgeries this past week, and would be on the road to recovery going forward.
According to UO, Dante underwent a surgery on his knee and will be reevaluated in four weeks to see what his status is for returning to the court. Bittle, on the other hand, will be reevaluated in eight weeks after undergoing successful surgery on his left wrist.
For a team that has been struggling with injuries not just this season, but for the past few years, this is a tough blow early on, but there is some optimism that both will return to the court this season, likely in January or later. In the mean time, the Ducks hope to get back both freshmen Jackson Shelstad and Mookie Cook in the coming weeks,
