The University of Colorado men’s basketball team has started the season with an 8-1 record. The Buffaloes are averaging 88.4 points per game, placing them fourth in the Big 12 Conference for scoring.

Freshman guard Isaiah Johnson is leading the team with an average of over 15 points per game. Forward Sebastian Rancik is contributing 13 points per game.
