Eric Williams - Game-high 19 points Williams posted 19 points (8-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 35 minutes during Friday's 86-63 victory over SMU.

Impact Williams led all scorers in the game with 19 points and also played well on the defensive end with a pair of steals. After initially declaring for the NBA Draft this offseason, Williams will look to improve his efficiency after shooting just 39-percent a season ago. He'll have his chance to shine with Oregon having three new starters this season.

Quincy Guerrier - Hauls in 12 boards in opener Guerrier had eight points (3-11 FG, 2-8 3Pt), 12 rebounds, two assists and a block across 26 minutes in Tuesday's 83-66 victory over Texas Southern.

Impact Guerrier gave fantasy managers a bit of a worry when coach Dana Altman stated that he was uncertain for the opener with an ankle injury during his pregame radio show Tuesday. He ended up being just fine, though he surprisingly started at center in Altman's small-ball lineup. It remains to be seen if this trend continues as Oregon gets healthier and more experienced down low, but there shouldn't be much holding Guerrier back in advance of Friday's matchup with SMU. Even Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports confirmed earlier in the day that he would be available for the late-night tilt.

Franck Kepnang - Plays 12 minutes off bench Kepnang (concussion) had seven points (2-4 FG, 3-4 FT) and four rebounds in 12 minutes of action during Tuesday's 83-66 win over Texas Southern.

Impact The towering 6-11 sophomore came in questionable for Tuesday's contest due to an apparent concussion but was still able to provide some minutes off the bench. Kepnang had been in contention for the starting center role at one point. The Ducks went small with 6-8 Quincy Guerrier manning the five spot, so it remains to be seen if Kepnang will see certain starts in the starting unit if head coach Dana Altman ever decides to add some size.

Quincy Guerrier - Starting Tuesday Guerrier (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Texas Southern.

Impact The junior was previously uncertain for the season opener with a lingering ankle injury. Guerrier averaged 13.7 points and 8.4 rebounds across 28 starts for Syracuse last year.

Franck Kepnang - Has been tending to concussion Kepnang has missed time of late due to a concussion, which makes him uncertain for Tuesday's opener against Texas Southern, Matt Prehm of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact At one point in contention to be the starting center for the Ducks, it's now a bit cloudy whether Kepnang will even be available for the opener. With Quincy Guerrier nursing an ankle injury and N'Faly Dante still rehabbing a knee injury, Oregon may have to rely heavily on freshman Nate Bittle early.

Quincy Guerrier - Has ankle injury Guerrier is uncertain for the season opener against Texas Southern due to an ankle injury, Matt Prehm of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact It's unclear based on the statements from head coach Dana Altman whether Guerrier would be ruled out or not, but it's starting to appear as if deploying him in daily formats may be a risky proposition.
