CU men's basketball adds JUCO All-American Shane Gatling

An intriguing long-range reinforcement is on the way for the Colorado men's basketball team, potentially offering a remedy for the biggest hole left behind by the 2018 seniors.

While Shane Gatling already has officially come aboard, the player whose place he will take on the Buffaloes' roster remains up in the air.

On Monday, the Buffs received a national letter of intent from Gatling, a 6-foot-2 guard who spent last season at Indian Hills Community College in Iowa after playing his freshman year at Niagara. Gatling is immediately eligible for the 2018-19 season and has two seasons of eligibility remaining.
