AT A GLANCE
Oregon women's basketball is set to embark on its 54th season, and 13th under head coach Kelly Graves, beginning with Tuesday's exhibition contest against Bushnell at Matthew Knight Arena.
The Ducks bring back seven players from last year's roster that reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament, including starters Ehis Etute, Katie Fiso and Ari Long. UO was set to retain four of five starters, however, senior guard Sofia Bell has been ruled out for the entire 2026-27 season with a lower-body injury.
Oregon also added transfer forward Hilar Fuller from Belmont while fifth-year forward Mallory Heyer, a transfer from Minnesota, will make her Duck debut after sitting out the 2025-26 season. Four freshmen also join the flock in guards La'u Pele Falatea, Brooklynn Haywood, Kennedy Hollman and Emilia Krstevski.
The Ducks are coming off a 23-13 season, reaching the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the second straight year after defeating ninth-seeded Virginia Tech in the opening round. It marked the ninth 20-win season in Graves' UO tenure, and fourth over the last five seasons. UO has qualified for seven of the last nine NCAA Tournaments.
