NOTES: CU has won its past two games at ASU, including a 75-57 win last year behind an 18-point, 13-rebound double-double from Jabari Walker. … The Sun Devils won in Boulder on Dec. 1 after Desmond Cambridge hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 2.6 seconds remaining. His brother, Devan Cambridge, went 7-for-12 with 18 points. … ASU played that game without Collins, who ranks fifth in the Pac-12 with 4.6 assists per game. … Washington missed ASU’s two games last week in the Bay Area due to an illness and his status remains uncertain for Thursday. … The Buffs are just 1-8 in true road games this season. … ASU’s defensive field goal percentage of .404 in league games ranks third in the Pac-12. … CU’s trip through the desert continues on Saturday night at No. 8 Arizona (6 p.m., ESPN2).
