The NCAA announced on March 11, 2020 that no fans would be able to attend the Men's and Women's 2020 NCAA tournaments, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A number of conference basketball tournaments followed suit by either canceling entirely, or playing as scheduled, but with no spectators in attendance. However, tournaments that were held in Las Vegas, including the Pac-12, were conducted with spectators in attendance on Wednesday, March 11. By the evening of March 11, the Pac-12 announced that the remaining games would be played only with "essential staff, television network partners, credentialed media and limited family and friends."
On March 12, the Pac-12 canceled the tournament before any more games were to be played. On the afternoon of March 12, 2020, the NCAA announced that all remaining winter and spring championships for both men's and women's sports were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Because of its late West Coast tip-off, the first round match-up between Colorado and Washington State would prove to be the last completed game of the 2019-20 men's basketball season.
