The Missouri men’s basketball team will aim for a home win on Tuesday as they host Colorado at Mizzou Arena. The Tigers have won three straight tight contests, beating Oklahoma, Baylor and Nebraska, by a combined 13 points. Tonight they’ll face a Colorado team, which handed them a 64-62 loss on January 26. That loss sparked a five game losing streak which immediately preceded their current three-game winning streak. The Buffaloes will be shorthanded tonight as four members of their team serve a suspension. Juniors Chris Copeland, Martane Freeman, Julius Ashby and sophomore Marcus Hall broke curfew before Saturday’s home loss to Texas A&M. Copeland is averaging 12.6 points and 6 rebounds per game, Ashby averages 7.1 points and 6.1 rebounds per game and Hall averages 11.9 points and a team-leading 4.4 assists per game. Freeman is a bench player.
