Shane Gatling wants to bring more than 3-point shot to CU Buffs basketball

With George King and Dom Collier gone, so is just over 43 percent of the made 3-pointers recorded by the Colorado men's basketball team last year.

Add the modest total of 3-pointers recorded last season by two other players no longer on the active roster — Lazar Nikolic and the injured Dallas Walton — and the Buffaloes enter the 2018-19 season missing 48.5 percent of the team's made 3-pointers from a year ago.

Even if it didn't look like it during the Buffs' exhibition win Saturday against Colorado Mines, newcomer Shane Gatling will be charged with narrowing that 3-point gap this season.
