The Colorado Buffaloes men’s basketball team brought the energy to new heights on Saturday, but it was Travis Hunter, fresh off his historic Heisman Trophy win, who stole the show. The dual-sport phenom electrified the crowd with jaw-dropping moments on the court that had Buff Nation buzzing long after the final whistle.
Travis Takes Center Stage
Before the Buffaloes tipped off against Bellarmine, Hunter joined the basketball team for a pregame showcase that left fans in awe. Donning a headband and Colorado basketball gear, Hunter threw down a spectacular between-the-legs dunk. The crowd erupted as the football star showed that his talents go beyond the gridiron. It was a moment that blurred the lines between football and basketball greatness, leaving fans wondering what else the Heisman winner could do.
A Half-Court Marvel
The highlight reel didn’t end there. During a quick shooting drill, Hunter casually drained a shot from half-court, drawing another wave of cheers from the crowd. “This guy is unreal,” one fan exclaimed, echoing the sentiments of Buff Nation. The sheer ease with which Hunter transitioned from football superstar to basketball sensation only added to the legend he’s building in Boulder.
