On a day when Colorado's Tyler Bey was named the Pac-12's Defensive Player of the Year and teammate McKinley Wright IV was named to the conference's all-defensive team, the Buffaloes began preparations for this week's conference tournament in Las Vegas — and they vowed to take their defense with them.
The 21-10 Buffs, the tourney's sixth seed, face 11th-seeded Washington State (15-16) on Wednesday at 9:30 p.
