The Tristian da Silva hype train is moving along, and this time it has brought some of his Colorado teammates along with him.
In Lindy’s Sports College Basketball Preview magazine, da Silva was named the 27th-best player in the country. Buffs point guard KJ Simpson also checked in at No. 82 and RJ Smith got a spot in the top 100 incoming freshmen.
Not only did the Buffs get some good love in the rankings, but both da Silva and Simpson landed on the projected All-Pac-12 teams, with Simpson earning a third-team nod and da Silva landing on the second team.
Most importantly, Colorado was listed as a team that will be dancing into March Madness.
