Oregon transfer guard De’Vion Harmon withdraws from NBA draft

The #Ducks got some good news from Oklahoma transfer De’Vion Harmon, who withdrew his name from the 2021 NBA draft.

Dana Altman and the Oregon Ducks men’s basketball program got good news as the calendar turned to July, with Oklahoma transfer guard De’Vion Harmon withdrawing his name from the 2021 NBA draft process – making it official that he will play at Oregon during the 2021-2022 season.

Harmon initially entered his name into the draft pool on March 26, about a month before he transferred from Oklahoma to Oregon. Now, he’s made it clear he plans to play for coach Altman, and even plans to be in Eugene this weekend:

Harmon averaged 12.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, and two assists per game for the Sooners as a sophomore last season, good for second on the team in scoring. He’ll give this Oregon squad some much needed experience and scoring in the backcourt.

Harmon is part of a very promising group of transfers joining the Ducks next season, including Jacob Young from Rutgers and Quincy Guerrier from Syracuse, which should keep this team atop the standings in the Pac-12 even after the loss of Chris Duarte.

After signing with agent, Chris Duarte’s career in Oregon is effectively over

The AP Pac-12 Player of the Year, Chris Duarte, has signed with an agent, cementing the end of his career with the Oregon Ducks.

It was a result of the end of the season that we knew was coming, but when Oregon Ducks senior Chris Duarte signed with an agent earlier this week and virtually finalized his transition to the NBA by starting the draft process, it ended his time in Eugene.

By signing with an agent, no player is allowed to return to college.

According to Yahoo! Sports writer Chris Haynes, Duarte signed with agent Charles Briscoe, who also represents players like Dwight Howard, Avery Bradley, and Michael Beasley. Briscoe can now add Duarte to the list, giving him a young and talented player who has seen his draft stock rise significantly over the past couple of months after he led the Ducks to a strong finish in 2021, capped off by an upset over the No. 2 seeded Iowa Hawkeyes and a trip to the Sweet Sixteen.

The Pac-12 Player of the Year will now set his sights on the NBA Draft, where he will look to crack the top-15 and become a lottery pick on June 22.

Oregon vs. Washington

No. 8 Oregon (14-4, 3-2) had a three-game win streak snapped when it lost to Washington State on the road on Thursday. The Ducks held a three-point lead at halftime but were outscored by 14 points in the second half for a 72-61 loss. Payton Pritchard led the Ducks with 22 points. Washington State went 11-for-21 from three-point range. The Ducks will need to do a better job of defending the perimeter to split their Washington road trip.

Washington (12-6, 2-3) got a 64-56 home win over Oregon State on Thursday. The win was Washington’s second straight home victory in conference play. Washington never trailed in the win over the Beavers, as the Huskies defense carried them to victory. The team held Oregon State to 39 percent shooting and just two threes for the game. Against a more talented Oregon team, Washington’s defense will have to come together against a tougher offensive opponent if it wants a win.
