The Oregon Ducks signed one player for the 2022 season on Friday morning and got word that another one would be returning to Eugene as well.
On Friday afternoon, forward Quincy Guerrier announced that he would be withdrawing his name from the 2022 NBA Draft and returning to Eugene for one more go-around with the Oregon Ducks.
Guerrier spent one year with Oregon, where he averaged over 10 points and 5 rebounds per game. Before that, Guerrier averaged 10 points and 6 rebounds per game with Syracuse in two seasons.
After what was a disappointing year for the Ducks, Guerrier entered his name in the draft but did not hire an agent so that he could keep his NCAA eligibility and potentially return to school if he so chose.
After getting the opportunity to go through the NBA draft process, I have decided to return to the University of Oregon. It was an incredible learning experience. I am excited to work with my teammates and help lead us to a Championship – Go Ducks! 🦆🍠pic.twitter.com/f157LeY6Vp

The roster in Eugene is shaping up, with new recruits coming in and joining returning players N’Faly Dante and Rivaldo Soares. We are also waiting to hear whether or not Will Richardson is going to come back for one more season with the Ducks as well.
