Colorado coach Tad Boyle earned his 300th career victory and his 244 wins with the Buffaloes are second in program history.
Jabari Walker had 11 points and tied his career high with 13 rebounds — his seventh double-double of the season — for Colorado (11-4, 3-1 Pac-12).
Cole Bajema and Daejon Davis made back-to-back 3-pointers to give Washington (6-7, 1-2 Pac-12) an 18-16 lead midway through the first half but da Silva scored 10 points as the Buffaloes used a 23-10 run over the final 9 minutes to take a 39-28 lead at halftime.
