McKinley Wright's buzzer-beater lifts CU basketball past Quinnipiac

Fast break

What went right: Most of what the Buffs did right occurred in the final three minutes. But they did outrebound Quinnipiac 42-37, and CU shot 22-for-39 (.564) on two-pointers.

What went wrong: For the first time this year the Buffs didn't guard the perimeter well, as Quinnipiac finished 10-for-32 on 3-pointers.

Star of the game: McKinley Wright. The freshman guard knocked down the winning 3-pointer at the buzzer, capping a night in which he went 8-for-12 with 21 points, five rebounds, two assists, and two steals.
