Surging in national power rankings, CU Buffs basketball gets set for final homestand

PORTLAND, Ore. — For McKinley Wright IV, it feels like it was only a few days ago that he and his teammates were packing their bags and bracing for the long journey to China, where the Colorado Buffaloes opened the 2019-20 basketball season against Arizona State.

That was three months ago, yet as the saying goes, time flies when you’re having fun. And for the most part, this season has been an incredibly fun ride for the Buffs. The latest jolt of merriment arrived late Saturday night, as the 16th-ranked Buffs routed Oregon State to salvage a split of their two-game trip through Oregon.
