Game day notes: CU basketball's slight improvement on turnovers will be tested by Oregon Ducks

However slightly, a reeling Colorado men's basketball team has improved on the turnover woes that marred the nonconference schedule — particularly during the disappointing 1-2 showing at the Diamond Head Classic in late December.

That slight improvement will be put to the test Saturday night against Oregon (7:30 p.m., Pac-12 Network).The Buffaloes will be taking on a Ducks team that has forced a league-best 17.1 turnovers per game in Pac-12 Conference play.

In Thursday's win at Utah, Oregon was able to erase the Utes' 14-point lead in the first half by forcing 17 turnovers and turning those extra possessions into 29 points.
