Game day notes: 3-point resurgence a key part of CU Buffs' hot streak

When the Colorado men's basketball team hit the floor for the 2017-18 season the Buffaloes had plenty of question marks. Three-point shooting, however, was not supposed to be one of them.

With George King, who led the Pac-12 Conference in 3-point percentage two years ago, and Dom Collier, who connected at a .444 rate that same season, leading the way, whatever growing pains the Buffs would inevitably experience would be offset with strong proficiency from behind the arc.

That wasn't the case at all through nonconference play and the first couple games within the Pac-12. However, as the Buffs host Washington on Saturday while in search of their fifth win in six games, a return to form from 3-point land has been a major ingredient in CU's resurgence.
