Continues hot streak in OT loss Bittle contributed 28 points (11-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Monday's 88-85 OT loss to Rutgers.

Impact Bittle has been on an absolute tear in his last four games, averaging 24.5 points in that span and scoring 28 points twice. And yet, even with his huge scoring output, he's remained active on he glass and has taken his passing to another level, averaging 3.0 assists in his last four contests as well. Bittle has really woken up at the right time for Oregon, even as the Ducks lost a heartbreaker in New Jersey on Monday night.

Nate Bittle, Takai Simpkins Combine for 32 Points in Oregon's Win vs. Maryland

Pours on 26 points in rout Bittle racked up 26 points (9-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-9 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, five blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Sunday's 80-57 win over Omaha.

Impact Bittle was Oregon's leading scorer as the Ducks rolled over Omaha to close out-of-conference play out on a high note. It was an eerily similar performance to his previous outing, an Oregon loss to Gonzaga, when he dropped 28 points and nine rebounds. The forward appears to be rounding into form after a few down outings, and considering Big Ten play is up next -- with two road games to start off with -- Bitte rounding into form couldn't come at a better time.

Erupts vs. Gonzaga Bittle logged 28 points (10-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, four blocks and one steal across 37 minutes during Sunday's 91-82 loss to Gonzaga.

Impact Oregon fell to Gonzaga but still fought valiantly, largely due to Bittle's season-high 28 points. It wasn't just the scoring, though -- Bittle was everywhere with nine boards, five assists and four steals. Though he couldn't quite lead his squad to victory, the center reminded just how dangerous he was. This could be a portent of things to come in what should be a challanging Big Ten slate during conference play.

The seven-footer also drained both of his three-point attempts, which makes him so much more challenging to defend when his three-point stroke is hot. Bittle has been a force in the paint for Oregon, but the competition steps up a notch when the Ducks face Auburn on Monday, Nov. 24.
