Why Oregon's future is bright

By Joe Kaiser

Oregon sits alone atop the Pac-12 standings and is 16-2 on the season, and even though the Ducks will lose a lot from its roster after the season (E.J. SinglerTony Woods, Arsalan Kazemi, Carlos Emory) they are set up well for the future thanks to their promising freshman backcourt.
Dominic Artis and Damyean Dotson have both logged big minutes and been a huge part of Oregon's success this season, and looking ahead at 2013-14 and beyond they will undoubtedly be one of the best guard tandems in the Pac-12. Artis has proven early in his college career that he can handle the ball and shoot lights out from the perimeter, while Dotson leads the team in scoring and is a dynamic athlete who can run the floor and affect the game on both ends of the court.

Here's our own Fran Fraschilla with more.

Artis and Dotson are getting it done
"Highly regarded 6-1 guard Dominic Artis has been adept, for the most part, at running the Ducks' offense. But 6-5 Houstonian Damyean Dotson has been a major revelation, averaging 12 points a game and shooting a ridiculous 76 percent at the rim, according to hoop-math.com. While Oregon's best basketball is certainly ahead of them, they have already shown great poise this season."
