EUGENE, Ore. (AP) - E.J. Singler scored a career-high 26 points and Oregon rallied from a 13-point halftime deficit to defeat UCLA 75-68 on Saturday.
Garrett Sim added 16 points for the Ducks (15-5, 6-2 Pac-12), including a pair of 3-pointers early in the second half to spark the comeback. Devoe Joseph had 10 for Oregon, which has won four straight conference games for the first time since winning six straight in 2007.
Singler scored 20 points in the second half and was 16 of 17 from the free-throw line.
Travis Wear led the Bruins (10-9, 3-4) with 17 points, and Lazeric Jones added 14.
The Ducks shot 23 percent from the floor in the first half and trailed 37-24 at the break. But Oregon opened the second half on a 15-2 run and took the lead for good on a 3-pointer by Johnathan Loyd that made it 55-52 with 6:49 to play.
