Per Olivia:
The Oregon men's basketball schedule, released on May 1, presents a unique matchup for the Ducks. Former Duck Brennan Rigsby will face his old team in his new home, suiting up for the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
Rigsby, a 6-3 guard originally from Colorado, announced his departure from the University of Oregon in April. Rigsby would be leaving Oregon and spending his last season of eligibility with the Golden Gophers of Minnesota.
"Brennan brings a wealth of experience to our program," Minnesota men's basketball coach Ben Johnson said. "He's played at a high major level on a team that went to the NCAA tournament with a coach that does a great job."
Last season with the Ducks, Rigsby averaged 6.1 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.1 assists in 36 games. He started in 21 games, shooting 40 percent from the field and 35.3 percent from beyond the arc. Rigsby also had six double-digit scoring games, including a season-high 19 points versus Michigan and 18 points at Washington State.
Rigsby's decision to enter the transfer portal came as a shock to some fans. After The Ducks' heart-breaking double-overtime loss to Creighton in the second round of the NCAA tournament, Rigsby expressed his desire to remain at Oregon.
