Jan 16, 2021

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- Stanford fell behind in the first half and couldn't catch up, falling 77-64 to Colorado on Saturday.

Oscar da Silva led the Cardinal with 22 points and 12 rebounds, earning his fourth double-double in five games, while Ziaire Williams scored 17 with five rebounds. Jaiden Delaire added 13 points, 11 of which came in the second half. The Cardinal was a perfect 15-for-15 from the foul line as a team.

McKinley Wright IV scored 14 points with eight assists and Evan Battey scored 13 with 12 rebounds for the Buffaloes.

Colorado used a 14-0 run in the final 3:43 of the first half for a 40-26 lead at intermission. Buffaloes freshman Tristan da Silva, the younger brother of Stanford's Oscar da Silva, buried his first career 3-pointer at the buzzer to end the half.

Colorado (11-3, 5-2 Pac-12 Conference) had nine players enter the scoring column by halftime. Stanford (8-5, 4-3) - which has now dropped two straight - never got within eight points in the second half.

Stanford heads to Santa Cruz, California to host USC on Jan. 21 pn FS1 and UCLA two days later on Fox. Both games tip off at 2 p.m.
