Buffaloes drop Pac-12 opener at Arizona

The Colorado Buffaloes began the Pac-12 slate just as they ended non-conference play. In a display of sloppy, inconsistent basketball, the Buffs fell to the Arizona Wildcats, 64-56.

Colorado looked like they were off to a good start, but it was an illusion. McKinley Wright had 7 points to lead the Buffs to a 9-4 lead in the opening minutes, but otherwise, his night was mostly plagued by turnovers (he had 6) and missed opportunities.

That wasn’t just Kin, however, as his issues proved to be part of a team-wide struggle as the Buffs shot 36% (35% from 3) and had 17 turnovers against 6 assists.
