For Josh Fortune, it's all a matter of having fun.

Fun, of course, is a luxury that has been in short supply for Fortune and the rest of a Colorado Buffaloes men's basketball team that has struggled to match its collective talent with performance for much of the season.

One of CU's four fifth-year seniors, Fortune spent a solid portion of last season in the starting lineup and did so again through the first 16 games this season. However, sustained struggles with his 3-point shot and general inconsistency led coach Tad Boyle to recently relegate Fortune to the bench.
