BOULDER — Josh Scott was honored on Saturday for a career that puts him among the best players in Colorado men's basketball history.

Now, the 6-foot-10 homegrown star hopes he can add a few more memorable moments to that legacy.

Scott and the Buffs survived a spirited effort from Arizona State, earning a 79-69 victory on senior day at Coors Events Center that puts CU one step closer to the NCAA Tourament.

The Buffs (21-9, 10-7 Pac-12) finished their home schedule 16-1 and are closing in on their fourth tournament berth in the past five seasons.
