Braeden Smith absolutely took over in the second half, powering Gonzaga past Oregon 91-82 in Portland. Smith dropped 16 of his 21 points after halftime, orchestrating a late-game run that left the Ducks scrambling. Oregon’s Nate Bittle was a force early, but the Zags’ outside shooting and Smith’s pick-and-roll mastery turned the tide. The Bulldogs’ defense clamped down inside after the break, while Braden Huff and Graham Ike found their rhythm. This was Gonzaga’s eighth win over a power conference team this season—are the Zags peaking at the right time? What do you think made the difference down the stretch? #Sports #Gonzaga #OregonDucks
