Colorado finally took the lead for good with 2:25 remaining when Siewert followed aDeleon Brown miss to give CU rebounding with seven in his collegiate debut against South Dakota. a 72-70 lead. But the Mavericks, who shot 53 percent from the field in the second half — including 6-for-10 from 3-point range — kept it close right down to the end. “They came in and brought it to us,” McKinley Wright said. “They gave us their best effort.

He hit a huge bucket with 1:51 to go that reer double-figure scoring game and first since his career-high 16 gave the Buffs a 74-70 lead, then added his two clinching free throws in the final seconds. Siewert, who had 11 points on 4-for-4 shooting in CU’s 100-71 win over Drake, was 6-for-10 from the floor against points at Washington State on Feb. 15, 2019.

Adding the Huskies during the nonconference schedule leaves Arizona State as the only Pac-12 team the Buffaloes will face once during the regular season – that game taking in place in Boulder, the week of Feb. 3-7, 2021.

Ironically, it was Arizona State that the Buffaloes faced last year in a nonconference game. The two teams met in Shanghai in the 2019-20 season opener in the Pac-12 China Game.

Colorado has played league opponents in nonconference regular season games before, in fact, it was once an annual tradition. The Buffaloes were involved in the Big 7/8 Conference Christmas tourna- ments for more than 30 years between 1947-78. Colorado would join its Big 7/8 counterparts, and sometimes another outside team, for a three-game tournament in Kansas City each year in late December, prior to the start of the league season.

PAC-12 PRESEASON POLL/HONORS: Colorado was picked sev- enth in the annual Pac-12 Preseason Poll. The Buffaloes earned 149 points, just five shy of USC which had 154, and a first place vote.

For the first time since the 2011-12 season, UCLA was picked to win the Pac-12 title. Just 10 points separated the top three teams, with UCLA finishing with 251 points in the balloting, Arizona State with 246 and Oregon with 241. It was the closest vote among the top three teams in the 37-year history of the conference’s preseason picks.

Stanford (209) and Arizona (173) rounded out the top five.

Senior McKinley Wright IV was named to the Preseason All-Pac-12 team while junior Evan Battey earned honorable mention.

BUFFS SIGN: Quincy Allen, Julian Hammond III, Lawson Lovering and Javon Ruffin signed National Letters of intent on Nov. 11 to continue their education and play basketball for the Buffaloes in 2021-22.

As of that date, Colorado’s signing class was ranked 16th in the nation by 247Sports.com while Rivals had the class at No. 19.

Quincy Allen, 6-7, 190, G/F, Silver Spring, Md. (Maret School): Allen is 49th on the ESPN 100 national list and checks in at No. 68 via Rivals and No. 71 in the 247Sports composite rankings. He plays in the Mid-Atlantic Conference, regarded as one of the top private school leagues in the country.

Julian Hammond III, 6-2, 180, G, Denver, Colo. (Cherry Creek): Hammond averaged 22 points, seven rebounds and four assists as a junior, leading the Centennial League in scoring and helping Cherry Creek to a No. 4 seed at the state tournament. 247Sports lists him as the top player in the state of Colorado and the 30th best combo guard in the nation.

Colorado improved to 3-1 and the Bears fell to 2-1. Colorado’s McKinley Wright IV led Colorado in scoring with 19 points. Evan Battey added 14 points and led the team in rebounds with eight. Dallas Walton also scored in double figures, notching 12 points. The Buffs used a 16-0 first-half run to help push their lead out to 45-21 at intermission. The Bears tried their best to claw back into the game early in the second half, but the Buffs were able to hold them off the rest of the way. “I thought everybody that played had some really good things that we can build upon.” Boyle said. “Overall, I’m pretty pleased.” Bodie Hume led the Bears with 11 points. HOW IT HAPPENED: The Buffs were able to build some cushion towards the end of the first half, going on a 16-0 run that began with a Wright 3-pointer. Colorado shot 17-for-31 in the first half and had just four turnovers while forcing 12 from the Bears. Colorado’s defense forced 21 total turnovers for the game and forced the Bears to shoot just 28.8% from the field (15-52). “Our ball screen defense was the key to holding them to 28% and not letting them get going from three,” Boyle said. “We got that lead in the second half and we talked about the fact that the only they would get back into this game was with 3-point jump shots, and we took those away for the most part.” The Buffs opened the second half with a Walton 3-pointer, which extended their lead to 27, 48-21. The Bears did not go away, however. UNC outscored the Buffaloes 17-16 in the first 10:26 after the break and Hume began the second half with eight points in the opening six minutes. The Bears also forced 10 second-half CU turnovers. But Colorado responded and never really allowed the Bears to get back into the game. The Buffs went on another surge late, hitting three 3-pointers in a row, two from Wright and one from D’Shawn Schwartz, to push the lead to 74-40. A layup from Luke O’Brien then gave the Buffs their largest lead of the night at 41, 81-40. The Bears scored the final four points of the contest. Colorado’s big men were a big part of CU’s success, with Battey and Walton combining for 26 points on 9-for-13 shooting. “We knew we had an advantage down low and in order to open up the floor for our shooters, we needed to establish an inside presence,” Walton said. “It was nice to get those looks early and to see a collective approach to our game plan to play inside and out.” Monday was also the first time this season that Colorado had all of its players available for a game. “When we’ve got all hands on deck and we play unselfishly for each other and sacrifice for each other, this team has a chance to be pretty special,” Boyle said. 2020-21 Colorado Men's Basketball Page 1/1 Combined Team Statistics as of Dec 15, 2020 All games
