Oregon MBB recap: Richardson’s triple-double leads Ducks over Nevada

Will Richardson’s triple-double leads Oregon over a very good Nevada team 78-65 to get back to a .500 record.

It hasn’t happened in nearly 20 years.

Will Richardson racked up a triple-double with 19 points, 11 assists, and 10 rebounds in Oregon’s 78-65 win over Nevada. The win put the Ducks back to .500 at 5-5 and the Wolfpack dropped to 8-3.

Luke Jackson was the last Oregon Duck men’s player to accomplish the feat. Of course, Sabrina Ionescu made it a habit throughout her career at Oregon.

Richardson, a fifth-year senior, waited until the waning moments of the game in order to get that 10th board. The game itself was well in hand as Oregon was actively trying to get its point guard that one last rebound.

Not to be overshadowed, however, was Quincy Guerrier’s 26 points and nine rebounds. The Ducks shot the ball well all night long as they were 46 percent from the field and 11-of-27 from downtown.
