2025 Tournament PreviewIowa State started the year 15-1, but then the injury bug hit and the Cyclones went 8-7 the rest of the way to finish fifth in the Big 12. A 6-8 sophomore forward, Milan Momcilovic (11.4 ppg) is healthy after a midseason wrist injury, but senior guard Keshon Gilbert (13.4 ppg, 4.1 apg) missed ISU's quarterfinal loss in the conference tournament with a muscle strain. Sixth-man Curtis Jones (17.1 ppg, 4.3 rpg) leads five players in double figures, and Cyclones still have firepower when at full strength, ranking 20th in offensive efficiency (per KenPom) thanks to a top-50 rank in effective field goal percentage. ISU also plays stout defense, as it is top 15 in turnover rate for the 10th-most efficient defense in the nation (per KenPom). Top 10 in both KenPom and the NET, the Cyclones are more than capable of getting to the second weekend.
