Three Oregon basketball players who were investigated but not charged in an alleged sexual assault have been dismissed from the team. Tom Brady Jersey Super Bowl . Damyean Dotson, 19, Dominic Artis, 19 and Brandon Austin, 18, were suspended after the school received a police report concerning allegations made by a student who said she was assaulted by the players in early March. School officials announced Friday that the players would not return to the Ducks because of conduct that is not befitting of student athletes. The Lane County district attorneys office investigated the allegations and determined that there was not enough evidence to prosecute the players on criminal charges. "They will not be playing basketball at Oregon again," said university President Michael Gottfredson, who appeared at Fridays press conference along with Vice-President for Student Affairs Robin Holmes and athletic director Rob Mullens. While Oregon was informed of the allegations after the womans father called police on March 9, school and team officials were asked not to take action so as not to interfere with the police investigation, the school has said. Two of the athletes subsequently played in NCAA tournament games for the Ducks. Mullens said he did not know which players were under investigation when the team played in the post-season tournament. Oregon received the final police report on April 24, and the three students were suspended shortly thereafter. "When you read the police report, its very clear it was conduct that isnt befitting of an Oregon student athlete," Mullens said Friday. "I dont want to get into specifics but it was very clear to us those were individuals we didnt want representing our organization." Brandon Austins attorney, Laura Fine Moro, had no comment. Neither did Shaun McCrea on behalf of Damyean Dotson. Greg Veralrud, attorney for Dominic Artis, did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment. The woman, a university student, met the players at a party on March 8, the same night the Ducks beat No. 3 Arizona in the final game of the regular season, and before they went on to the Pac-12 and NCAA tournaments. The womans father called police the next day. Eugene police made public a 24-page report on Monday detailing the accusations, in which the athletes said sexual relations with the student were consensual. District Attorney Alex Gardner on Tuesday released a three-page explanation for his decision not to bring charges in the case, citing conflicting actions and statements by the victim. After the allegations surfaced earlier this week, the school said the players were not participating in team activities but would not elaborate. The school had cited federal privacy laws in not commenting further on the status of the players. While Oregon released a statement earlier this week saying that the school was conducting an internal inquiry, the handling of the alleged assault sparked protests on campus, including one Thursday that drew more than 100 people, many of whom accused the school of holding athletes to a different standard. Gottfredson said the university plans to take additional action next week to address the universitys response to sexual assaults. "Our students safety and security is our top priority," he said. "We have strong policies and protocols in place, and we are working to make them stronger still." Gottfredson said the school would continue "to pursue all appropriate action in this case." It was unclear whether the athletes faced expulsion. It is the second sexual assault allegation Austin has faced. While at Providence College, he and another Providence player were accused last year of sexually assaulting a female student on campus. The two were suspended and Austin subsequently transferred to Oregon. He had to sit out a calendar year under NCAA transfer rules. Amy Kempe, a spokeswoman for the Rhode Island Attorney Generals office, said this week that that case remains under investigation. Oregon went 24-10 last season and advanced to the NCAA tournament for the second straight year. Seven seniors and two transfers have already left the team since its third-round tournament loss to Wisconsin on March 22. Womens Michael Jordan Jersey .

Amir Johnson had 27 points for the Raptors and Kyle Lowry scored 22 with nine assists. James Johnson managed 11 off the bench and those were the only three Toronto players in double figures. James and Kyrie Irving combined to score 17 in the third quarter and the Cavs led by as many as 14. They never let the Raptors get closer than six in the fourth. They were hitting on all cylinders, and they were executing as well as you could ask for, said Raptors coach Dwane Casey. I would say that I know this team tonight wasnt us. Sometimes in the NBA schedule (with) the first game back from a West Coast trip, the worst team you want to see is a team as talented as Cleveland. But again, hats off to them; they spanked us. The Raptors will get their chance for revenge on the Cavaliers when the two teams meet at Quicken Loans Arena on Tuesday.

In the final 12 minutes, Denver cut the Atlanta lead to single digits four separate times and got it down to as little as seven with 3:35 remaining.
