Jackson Shelstad, No. 23 Oregon too strong for Indiana

Jackson Shelstad scored 18 points and No. 23 Oregon held Indiana scoreless for more than 4 1/2 minutes late in the game Thursday to pull out a 72-59 win in the second round of the Big Ten Conference tournament in Indianapolis.

TJ Bamba added 17 points and Brandon Angel kicked in 14 for the eighth-seeded Ducks (24-8).

Oregon canned 49.1 percent of its shots from the field and advanced to the quarterfinals on Friday against top-seeded Michigan State.

Malik Reneau came off the bench to score a game-high 19 points for the Hoosiers (19-13), while Trey Galloway added 15 points and a game-high nine assists. Mackenzie Mgbako hit for 10 points but leading scorer Oumar Ballo made only 4 of 11 shots and managed just eight points, five below his average.

The outcome was not only Indiana’s second loss to the Ducks in nine days but also appears to leave the Hoosiers squarely on the NCAA Tournament bubble. They connected on just 25 of 69 attempts from the field.

Indiana trailed just 56-54 with 7:33 remaining after Reneau shook loose for a layup off a Myles Rice feed. But it didn’t score again until Reneau made a layup at the 2:04 mark, making it 65-56. Oregon kept it at bay from there.

The pregame storyline was whether the Ducks could keep their late-season run going. They came into the tournament with a seven-game winning streak that included a come-from-behind overtime win last month at Wisconsin.

The Hoosiers got out of the gate strong, playing a de facto home game just minutes from their Bloomington campus. They led 17-9 at the 13:35 mark as Reneau converted a 3-point play.

But Oregon gradually reeled them in over the next 6 1/2 minutes, forging a 23-23 tie with 7:02 left as Angel splashed a corner 3-pointer off a Keeshawn Barthelemy pass. Then they ripped off the final 10 points of the half to take a 37-29 advantage to intermission on Barthelemy’s short jumper with 31 seconds remaining.
