BOULDER — Colorado guard McKinley Wright and his teammates are in the midst of what Wright calls "the most important summer we've had since we got here."
The CU junior, who is almost fully recovered from shoulder surgery, isn't exaggerating. After a strong finish last season — and with virtually every contributor back for another year — Colorado is suddenly on everyone's radar. The Buffs will likely be picked to finish in the top three in the Pac-12, and are being mentioned in the conversation when it comes to potential top 25 teams.
That is no surprise.
