Brooks, who had offseason surgery on his left foot, limped off the court as Oregon was building a 44-30 halftime lead. Oregon officials tweeted that Brooks had injured his lower left leg after he did not appear with his teammates for the second half.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Deng Adel scored 18 points to match a career high and Donovan Mitchell scored 18 in the first half as Louisville closed on a 10-0 run.
Playing their first game without injured point guard Quentin Snider (strained hip), the Cardinals (16-3, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) initially struggled to find a rhythm with numerous combinations. Mitchell scored their first six points to settle them down before adding eight during the pivotal spurt with consecutive 3-pointers, the last of which beat the buzzer and earned a 41-31 halftime lead.
Marcquise Reed had 13 points and Donte Grantham added 11 for the Tigers (11-7, 1-5), who lost their fifth straight.

Jock Landale added 10 points and 10 rebounds while Joe Rahon had nine points and nine assists for Saint Mary's, which has won 10 of 11.
The Gaels (16-2, 6-1 West Coast Conference) let most of a 19-point lead slip away and were up 35-30 early in the second half before Hermanson sparked a 17-4 run. Landale had four points during the run while Tanner Krebbs made two of his three 3-pointers.
T.J. Wallace scored 13 points for Pacific (8-12, 2-5), which has lost eight straight and 10 of 11 in the series between the schools.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Melo Trimble scored 20 points and Maryland rallied after blowing a 15-point lead for its fourth straight victory.
Trimble hit consecutive 3-pointers in the final 3 minutes to key the Terrapins (17-2, 5-1 Big Ten), who have also won three in a row on the road.
Maryland was threatening to blow out the Hawkeyes (11-9, 3-4) before they went on a 10-0 run midway through the second half. The Hawkeyes went ahead 72-69, but an 8-0 spurt fueled by Trimble's 3s gave Maryland a lead it did not relinquish.
Anthony Cowan had 15 points and six assists for the Terrapins, who shot 56.6 percent from the field.
Peter Jok, the Big Ten's leading scorer, had 14 points for Iowa on 4-of-12 shooting.
