The No. 17 Arizona Wildcats lead the Colorado Buffaloes 39-27 at the end of the first half. Leading all scorers for the Wildcats is senior Kadeem Allen with 12 points and two assists.
The matchup with the Buffaloes marks the game number 17 of the 32 scheduled (including one game for the Pac-12 tournament) for Arizona. Amidst wide speculation that sophomore standout Allonzo Trier was returning to the lineup tonight, he was once again dressed in street clothes and not participating in the contest.
After Arizona center Dusan Ristic connected on one of two free throws to start off the game’s scoring the Buffaloes came out firing.
