Louis King scored 19 points and Payton Pritchard added 18 points as Oregon broke a three-game losing streak with a 79-51 victory over Arizona State on Thursday in Eugene, Ore.

Ehab Amin had 11 points, and freshman Francis Okoro had seven points and a game- and season-high 10 rebounds for the Ducks (16-12, 7-8 Pac-12). Oregon kept alive a slim chance of a top-four finish and a first-round bye in the league tournament in two weeks.

Remy Martin had 13 points and six assists, and Rob Edwards added 11 points and five rebounds for the Sun Devils (19-9, 10-6). Arizona State had a three-game winning streak broken and sustained a blow to its NCAA Tournament at-large chances.

Oregon, which lost a 19-point lead in 90-83 defeat at UCLA last Saturday, led by eight points at halftime Thursday before scoring the first 12 points of the second half to assume control. Kenny Wooten hit the first two baskets in that span.

Pritchard had a 3-pointer and a three-point play while scoring seven points in the first 10 minutes of the second half as the Ducks stretched their lead to 60-36.

Pritchard finished with four assists and four rebounds. Wooten had six rebounds and Amin grabbed five.

The Ducks shot 49.2 percent from the field and limited Arizona State to 32.1 percent field-goal shooting, the fourth time in league play the Sun Devils shot below 34 percent. The Sun Devils made just 3 of 24 3-point attempts while the Ducks hit 9 of 25 from long distance.

Oregon had a 44-26 rebounding advantage. Arizona State led the Pac-12 with a plus-6.1 rebounding margin entering the game and was ninth in NCAA Division I with an average of 41.1 per game.

Arizona State used a 19-0 second-half run to beat the Ducks 78-64 on Jan. 19.
