Can Oregon Follow Miami’s Example to Beat North Carolina?

Jackson stats are comparable to Brooks in the last seven games. He is averaging 17.4 PPG and 4.7 RPG. He has only shot 41.1 percent from the floor and 32.7 percent on threes in the last seven games.

Dorsey has been on fire since the postseason began. Commencing with the Ducks Pac 12 quarterfinal win against Arizona State he has scored at least 20 points in each game. He is averaging 23.6 points per game shooting 62.4 percent from the floor and 57.8 percent on threes.

Brooks has scored in double figures in the Ducks last 16 games. He is averaging 17.6 PPG and 5.0 rebounds in the postseason.

The game could come down to how well the guards play. Miami was able to win when Newton, Brown and Davon Reed dominated UNC in their win in January. In North Carolina’s dominant performance in the ACC Tournament Brown had one of his best games of the year, but Reed and Newton Struggled.

Brown finished with 21 points on 9-13 from the floor. He was the only Hurricane in double figures. Reed and Newton combined for 10 points on 3-12 from the field.
