Sebastian Rancik - Not playing vs. Nova Rancik (leg) is out for Tuesday's game against Villanova, Oliver Hayes of BuffStampede reports.
Impact Rancik left the March 13 game against Houston due to a right leg injury, and the same injury will prevent him from suiting up in this contest. Rancik has started in 11 of his 33 appearances this season, averaging 5.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists across 17.5 minutes per game. It remains to be seen if he'll be available for the rest of the Crown Basketball Tournament.

Sebastian Rancik - Leaves Buffs' game vs. Houston Rancik appeared to injure his right leg against Houston after an in-game collision, Pat Rooney of the Boulder Daily Camera reports.
Impact Ranick went to the locker room, reportedly walking gingerly and favoring his left leg. He has yet to return for the Buffaloes they try to pull off a massive upset over Houston. The guard had two points and one rebound before his exit.
MARCH 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Javon Ruffin - Returns to bench role Ruffin will come off the bench in Colorado's Big 12 Tournament game against Houston, Pat Rooney of the Boulder Daily Camera reports.
Impact Ruffin started the past four games for the Buffaloes, but he'll be sent back to the bench in favor of RJ Smith, who's coming off a 13-point, five rebound outing in Colorado's win over West Virginia. Ruffin should still see a solid workload off the bench Thursday.
MARCH 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
RJ Smith - Starting against Houston Smith is listed amongst Colorado's staters ahead of Thursday's matchup with Houston, Pat Rooney of the Boulder Daily Camera reports.
Impact Smith will return to the starting lineup for the Buffaloes during Thursday's matchup with the Cougars. The 6-foot-3 sophomore has appeared in all 32 games (14 starts), averaging 6.1 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.7 steals on 21.1 minutes per game.
MARCH 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Elijah Malone - Scores 14 off bench Malone closed with 14 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 67-60 victory over West Virginia.
Impact Malone returned to the bench after having started the previous two contests, shooting 70-percent from the floor while compiling his highest point total since the start of conference play. Despite coming off the bench, Malone played 27 minutes, more than he's totaled in all but one game this season.
MARCH 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
RJ Smith - Provides punch off bench Smith totaled 13 points (4-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 67-60 victory over West Virginia.
Impact Smith drained three from beyond the arc for the fourth time this season, falling just one point shy of a season high during Wednesday's upset win over West Virginia in the Big 12 tournament. The reserve guard also helped out on the defensive end, adding five defensive boards, two blocks and a steal. As Colorado continues to make its improbable run, Smith has played an important role over the past seven games, reaching double figures four times during that stretch while lifting his scoring production to 9.3 points after averaging 5.2 points through the first 25 games.
