Tinkle Crucial to Oregon State's Postseason Hopes 

Tinkle is second on the team in points (13.1), rebounds (5.4) and steals (1.2) per game. The injury comes at a bad time for the Beavers, who sit firmly on the postseason bubble.

Oregon State (19-11, 9-9), which has not made the NCAA tournament since 1990, could look to play a three-guard lineup without Tinkle. Freshman guard Stephen Thompson Jr. got the start in Tinkle's place Wednesday in a loss to the USC Trojans.
