Brennan Rigsby - Won't play in opener Rigsby will miss Monday's opener against Florida A&M with an undisclosed injury, Matt Prehm of 247sports.com reports.

Impact Head coach Dana Altman would not specify what the injury was, but Rigsby will miss at least the season opener. The 6-3 guard is expected to be inserted right into the rotation when healthy after impressing at Wasatch Academy as a freshman, averaging 11.3 points and three rebounds per game.

Impact Head coach Dana Altman did not specify the injury Wur is dealing with, but the 6-9 junior will miss at least Monday's opener. Wur has been a role player during his tenure with the Ducks but could see an uptick in usage as in his fourth season with the program.

Rivaldo Soares - Not practicing Soares (undisclosed) didn't participate in Oregon's open practice and is out for the time being, James Crepea of The Oregonian reports.

Impact Soares is out "at the moment," according to Crepea. It doesn't sound like his injury will be long term, but his availability for the opener against Florida A&M may be in jeopardy. Soares looked to have a rotational role at guard for the Ducks in 2022.

Jermaine Couisnard - Out indefinitely Oregon coach Dana Altman said Couisnard had knee surgery Monday and will be out "for a while", James Crepea of The Oregonian reports.

Impact Couisnard averaged 12.0 points, 3.2 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 24.8 minutes across 26 games last season for South Carolina before transferring to Oregon. While Altman did not say the surgery is season-ending, it's safe to assume that Couisnard will miss a large chunk of the season. Ethan Butler will likely receive an enhanced role with the senior forward out.

Nate Bittle - Improved outside shooting Bittle has turned heads with his shooting prowess during the preseason, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Bittle only shot 52.9 percent from the free throw line and 20.0 percent from three last season, albeit in only 6.9 minutes per game. However, if the 7-footer can be a real outside threat, Oregon will be a formidable team to stop. Bittle is in line to be the team's starting center this season.
