Nate Bittle goes for 36 as Oregon beats Washington in OT

Oregon 7-footer Nate Bittle dropped a career-high 36 points and added a game-high 12 rebounds as the Ducks outlasted Washington 80-73 in overtime Sunday in Big Ten play at Seattle.

Bittle made a go-ahead jumper with 1:04 left in regulation for a 68-67 Oregon lead. Washington's Great Osobor missed one free throw but made the second to tie the game with 48 seconds left, and the regular-season finale for both teams wound up in overtime.

There, Oregon (23-8, 12-8 Big Ten) dominated, with six different players scoring for a 12-5 advantage over their rivals.

Oregon outshot Washington 49.1 percent to 41 percent and outrebounded the Huskies 43-28 thanks to Bittle, who went 13-for-20 overall and 3-for-4 on 3-pointers.

Keeshawn Barthelemy added 14 points, Kwame Evans Jr. paired 11 points with 11 rebounds and TJ Bamba had 10 points for the Ducks, who will be the No. 8 seed in the Big Ten tournament and open against No. 9 Indiana.

The Huskies (13-18, 4-16) finished last in their first season in the league and will miss the conference tournament. Osobor had 10 of his points in the second half to help Washington come back from down six and take a pair of one-point leads, the latter on Osobor's layup with 1:29 to play.

Zoom Diallo scored 13 points (all in the first half), Franck Kepnang had 12 and a team-high seven rebounds, Mekhi Mason scored 11 points and Tyler Harris had 10.

The Ducks led 36-33 at halftime and led by as many as 10 points early in the game.
