A postgame medical exam found that UCLA guard Darren Collison suffered no major injury in a hard fall against Oregon on Saturday.

The senior was hurt driving to the basket with less than 13 minutes remaining in the Bruins’ 94-68 victory at Pauley Pavilion.

Landing on his back, Collison remained on the floor in obvious pain before getting up to shoot a free throw. He then left the game, spending the rest of the afternoon on the bench.

X-rays came back negative and Collison expects to be ready for the Pacific 10 Conference tournament next week.

‘When I get treatment the next three days, they say it should be fine,’ he said. ‘I love to rest anyways.’
