BOULDER, Colo. -- — Isaiah Johnson scored 20 points, and Colorado beat Portland State 84-73 on Wednesday night in a game without fans inside the CU Events Center.

Jaylin Henderson scored 23 points on 10-of-18 shooting to lead Portland State (6-4). Terri Miller Jr. added 16 points. Keyon Kensie Jr. chipped in with 11 points and eight rebounds.
Hargress scored eight points to help Colorado build a 37-35 halftime advantage. Miller scored 10 first-half points to pace Portland State. The Buffaloes took the lead for good about six minutes into the second half and had their largest lead, 80-68, with about two minutes left.
Colorado faces Stanford on Saturday in the Hall of Fame series in Phoenix.
Portland State plays at Tulane on Saturday.
