Ahead of Senior Day, DuckTerritory.com sat down with four-year starting point guard and potential Pac-12 Player of the Year Payton Pritchard for a one-on-one interview podcast about his love for basketball, his career that almost didn't happen with the Ducks, what he's been most proud about during his four seasons at Oregon, and many more topics. Pritchard will leave Oregon as the school's all-time leader in career wins and assists and is on pace to set the record for steals. He is the only player in Pac-12 history to accumulate over 1,800 points, 600 rebounds, and 600 assists at the men's level of college basketball. In the podcast, Pritchard discusses his decision last year to test the NBA waters and then come back to school for his senior year. He talked about why he did that and if it's paid off for him. Pritchard is putting up career numbers across the board this season: points (20.2), assists (5.4), rebounds (4.3), field goal percentage (46.1), and minutes (36.6). Pritchard leads the conference in points and assists and would become just the fourth player in school history to do that. Gary Payton, Damon Stoudamire, and Jason Terry are the only three others. All three were consensus First-Team All-Americans and Payton and Terry were National Players of the Year. Pritchard will play against California Thursday night at Matthew Knight Arena for his second-to-last basketball game at home in his career. He'll have senior night against Stanford this weekend on Saturday night at 8 p.m. Oregon is currently half a game out of first place in the Pac-12 Standings and winning their final two games will guarantee at least a share of the conference title for his second time in his career.
