While things have been relatively quiet on the transfer front for Dana Altman and the Oregon Ducks, the team received some of the best news that they could have hoped for on Monday morning.
Veteran center N’Faly Dante announced that he would be returning to the team for at least once more season in Eugene with the Ducks.
After having a career year in 2022, averaging 13.4 points per game and 8.4 rebounds, it became clear that Dante was not only the best player on the team, but arguably the best center that the Ducks have had under Dana Altman.
With Dante’s announced return, the roster is shaping up for the 2023 season in Eugene. There are now seven guys who we have confirmed to be in Eugene, and a handful of others, both returners and potential transfers, who could fill out the roster.
The bit of good news sparked some joy online from Duck fans. Here are some of the reactions.
