Bowen plays Small Forward and is ranked among the Top 20 for the Class of 2017. Oregon was left in a bit of shambles following the 2016 season and the mass exodus for the NBA Draft and Graduation. Payton Pritchard was the lone Starter standing from the Final Four team last year.
Altman and his staff have been tasked to rebuilding and so far have some key pieces for next season including 5-Star Troy Brown. Could the Oregon Ducks woo another 5-Star talent in Bowen?
What is more impressive is that Bowen has traveled to Eugene on his own dime He has made the rounds to a few schools over the last month, along with his mother according to the report. Bowen has also made visits to Arizona, Michigan, and DePaul.
