Oregon scored 10 unanswered points over the final 90 seconds to pull out a 73-64 victory over Indiana on Tuesday in the Ducks' regular-season home finale in Eugene, Ore.
Jackson Shelstad put up eight points in the closing stretch and finished with a team-high 17 as the Ducks (22-8, 11-8 Big Ten) won their sixth straight game.
Nate Bittle added 14 points, seven rebounds and six assists, and TJ Bamba had 13 points to go with some tough defense for Oregon.
Trey Galloway's 16 points led Indiana (18-12, 9-10). Oumar Ballo added 10 points and 12 rebounds as the Hoosiers had a three-game winning streak end.
The Ducks led by six points early in the second half, but Indiana put together an 11-2 run to take a 50-47 lead on a Myles Rice 3-pointer with 13:21 to go.
From there, neither team led by more than three points for more than 12 minutes. Ballo blocked a Bittle shot at one end, then set a screen to free Galloway for an open 3-pointer and a 64-63 Indiana lead with 1:58 to play.
Shelstad drained a long-distance trey with 1:30 to go and just before the shot clock expired, giving Oregon a 66-64 lead. Then the Ducks locked up on defense, Bamba forcing a turnover that led to a foul and two Bittle free throws with 1:05 to go.
Shelstad made a pair of free throws with 55 seconds remaining, then hit 3 of 4 from the foul line the rest of the way to seal the outcome.
Oregon led by as many as nine points, 28-19, in the first half after Kwame Evans Jr. knocked down a 3-pointer with 6:24 to play. Then Indiana went on a 13-2 run to take a two-point lead.
An Evans 3-pointer put the Ducks back in front 35-32. A foul on Oregon with 0.9 seconds gave the Hoosiers a chance to cut the deficit just before halftime, but Malik Reneau missed the front end of a one-and-one.
