Likely done for the season Shelstad (hand) is expected to miss the rest of the 2025-26 season with tendon and ligament damage in his right hand, James Crepea of The Oregonian reports.

Impact Shelstad, who sustained a right-hand injury in late December, is dealing with ligament and tendon damage that is expected to sideline him for the remainder of the 2025-26 season. Head coach Dana Altman said that the injury may require surgery, but regardless Shelstad is expected to miss 6-8 weeks. The 6-foot-1 junior was off to a strong start in his third season with the Ducks, averaging 15.6 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.4 steals across 12 starts. This is back-breaking news for an Oregon team with pre-season NCAA Tournament aspirations. In the wake of Shelstad's injury the Ducks will likely rely on Wei Lin to run point for the remainder of the season.

Likely to miss more time Shelstad (hand) is in pain to the point where he cannot dribble or shoot, Dylan Burkhardt of UMHoops.com reports.

Impact Head coach Dana Altman said that Shelstad is eager to play, but the pain in his right hand is preventing him from making a return. Based on the context, it seems like Shelstad will at least miss Saturday's game versus Michigan and will likely miss more time after that. Unfortunately, there is now clear timetable for his return at this time. The junior was averaging 15.6 points, 2.9 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game in his 12 games prior to his injury, so needless to say the Ducks will want him back as soon as possible.

Impact Shelstad will miss his fourth straight game for the Ducks. The starting point guard has been excellent this season, averaging 15.6 points, 2.9 rebounds and 4.9 assists, but he'll have to wait a little longer to make his return to the court. Wei Lin should draw the start once again in his absence.

Bad shooting night in loss Shelstad closed with 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt) and four assists in 36 minutes during Sunday's 91-82 loss to Gonzaga.

Impact Shelstad is now shooting under 40 percent from the field this season for the Ducks, and posted his second straight poor shooting game as Oregon fell at the hands of the Zags. The point guard is still averaging career-highs in points, rebounds and assists this season, but he'll need to step up his shooting efficiency if the Ducks want to make some noise in the Big Ten.
