The Colorado Buffaloes will be represented in the NBA Playoffs by two former basketball stars, Andre Roberson of the Oklahoma City Thunder, and Alec Burks of the Utah Jazz.
Andre Roberson (2010-13) was perhaps the best defensive player the Buffaloes have ever seen. As a 6’7, hyper-athletic forward, Roberson was known for his ability to dominate any matchup, no matter his opponent’s skill or size. He was also known as the unquestioned best rebounder in all of college basketball.
In Roberson’s two years as a starter, he averaged 11.3 points, 11.2 rebounds, 1.7 steals, 1.6 blocks and had a sparkling 23.
