Multiple Colorado Buffaloes players listed in latest NBA mock drafts
Colorado men’s basketball team will head to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn to take on the 15th-ranked Miami Hurricanes. It’s another big matchup against a ranked opponent that should provide a better gauge of what we can expect from the Buffaloes moving forward.
There’s no lack on talent on Colorado. If these Buffs continue to develop, this won’t be their only stop at the Barclays Center, they’ll be headed back next June for the NBA Draft.
Here’s where some of the bigger mock drafts and their projections for Colorado players. As you can see, opinions can vary amongst the experts.

Bleacher Report
No. 9 Cody Williams
Bleacher Report- “Despite performances at the Nike Hoop Summit, McDonalds All-American week and World Cup that painted Cody Williams as raw and unpolished, he's averaging 14.0 points on 62.3 percent shooting. He’s scoring efficiently, mostly by optimizing his positional height for separating and using footwork and touch around the paint.”
No. 28 Tristan da Silva
Bleacher Report-“While scouts may question how much of Tristan da Silva's two-point scoring can translate, his shooting remains highly convincing. The 6'9" forward is at 45.5 percent from three and 84.4 percent from the line.”
Sports Illustrated
No. 8 Cody Williams
No. 36 Tristan da Silva
Tankathon
No. 18 Cody Williams
No. 43 Trista da Silva
CBS Sports
No. 17 Cody Williams
CBS Sports- “The younger brother of OKC star Jalen Williams, Cody Williams is similar to his brother in that he's a long wing with good defensive upside and playmaking ability. Williams emerged as a borderline top-25 player in his class to a top-five ranked player, and he is on track to be in the lottery discussion with his long frame, shooting ability and defensive prowess.”
