A sloppy first half in a near-empty building, but the Ducks show promise

At 11:59 with the Ducks struggling to find a shot against a hustling Stanford defense, Wei Lin penetrated into the paint and dished to Nate Bittle under the basket for a layup and an And-1.

Bittle made the free throw for a 21-14 lead. Two possessions later Lin found him again for a three to make it 24-14.

The two plays showed how Lin's flair and ball-handling might ignite the offense for the Ducks, especially when shooting guard Jackson Shelstad returns to the lineup.

The Ducks went cold for a stretch, with Stanford going on a 11-0 run to take a 25-24 lead.
