Episode Details

Iowa State’s basketball team, which reached the Sweet Sixteen last year, is reshaping its roster this offseason through the transfer portal, losing key players like Milan Momcilovic, Joshua Jefferson, and Tamin Lipsey—now eyeing the NBA Draft. In their place, five new transfers join forces with returning standouts Killyan Toure, Blake Buchanan, and Jamarion Batemon. While the team lacks last year’s star power, the blend of newcomers and veterans could create a balanced, competitive squad. JaQuan Johnson, a 17-point-per-game scorer from Bradley, stands out as a potential game-changer, especially with his scoring ability alongside the guards. Despite assembling a strong transfer class, the team hasn’t garnered the same national attention as other top hauls. With coach T.J. Otzelberger at the helm, the real test will be how quickly this new-look team gels—and whether they can replicate—or exceed—the success of last season.
