Michigan State Spartans team news & key performers

This game holds extra significance for the Spartans' junior forward Grace VanSlooten, who spent two seasons with the Ducks before transferring. VanSlooten could be a pivotal factor in securing a win against her former team, as she's been a crafty and dominant presence in her time with Michigan State.

In their recent matchup with No. 24 Michigan, VanSlooten took control in the second half, outplaying a tight guard rotation from the Wolverines. She finished with 18 points, shooting a stellar 8-10 from the field. Over her last five games, she's been averaging 16.4 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. Against an Oregon team lacking a strong inside presence, VanSlooten's rebounding ability, combined with Michigan State's strength in the paint, could provide a significant advantage.

Graduate guard Julia Ayrault, known for her aggressive driving to the basket, could also capitalize on this area. Ayrault is fresh off her sixth double-double of the season, having posted 18 points and 13 rebounds against Michigan. She currently averages 16.3 points and 7.9 rebounds per game, continuing to shine as a consistent force for the Spartans.

Oregon Ducks team news & key performers

Michigan State will recognize a familiar face in Deja Kelly, who previously played for North Carolina. Kelly scored 13 points in last season's NCAA Tournament, helping the Tar Heels to a narrow 59-56 victory over MSU in the first round. This season, Kelly leads the Ducks in scoring, averaging 10.5 points per game, just ahead of Peyton Scott (10.4 ppg).

Oregon ranks fourth in the Big Ten in scoring defense, allowing just 58.8 points per game. They also excel defensively, ranking fourth in steals with 10.1 per game.
