Ruffin is the son of former NBA forward Michale Ruffin, who played from 1999-2009 and is a Cherry Creek alum. Other than Colorado, California had offered the younger Ruffin and a few other programs were in the mix with him, as well.

With Hammond expected to play point guar for CU, Ruffin likely will settle into the 2-guard position.
