His final season at Colorado may not have unfolded exactly the way he might’ve scripted it a year ago.
Colorado forward Tristan da Silva celebrates after his team’s 79-75 win over Oregon in an NCAA college basketball game Thursday, March 7, 2024, in Eugene, Ore.
Yet those achievements didn’t arrive easily. The Buffs struggled with injuries before getting hot late, with da Silva battling his own shooting slump in the wake of an ankle injury that sidelined him early in Pac-12 play. In the NBA, either within a season or over the course of a career, similar challenges and hurdles will be inevitable.
“Tristan has played his way that he can possibly be a lottery pick, but I think he’s a mid-first rounder at worst,” CU head coach Tad Boyle said. “His stock just continues to really climb with the workouts he’s had and the interviews. All three were going to interview great because they come from great families, they’re articulate, they’re well-spoken, they’re smart, they’re good teammates. I know Tristan’s been working out and shooting the ball really well.
