No. 6 Iowa State blows out Sun Devils 86-65 after scoring 24 straight points in 2nd half

Joshua Jefferson, Tamin Lipsey and Milan Momcilovic had16 points apiece and No. 6 Iowa State scored 24 straight points to break open an 86-65 victory over Arizona State

2 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Milan Momcilovic - Drains four triples Momcilovic produced 16 points (4-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Saturday's 86-65 victory over Arizona State.

Impact Momcilovic connected on four triples en route to matching two others with a team-high 16 points while adding a steal and a trio of rebounds and assists to help the Cyclones close out the regular season with a convincing road win. The junior sniper's four threes represented the third time in four games he's reached that mark, though he's generally been struggling to close out the season, failing to reach double figures in scoring three times over the last six games. In spite of this relatively quiet stretch, Momcilovic had a breakout season, scoring 20-or-more on 12 occasions and averaging 17.0 points while leading all qualified players in the nation by shooting an even 50.0-percent from beyond the arc.

Tamin Lipsey - Defensive disruptor Lipsey produced 16 points (5-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-7 FT), two rebounds, six assists and six steals over 34 minutes during Saturday's 86-65 victory over Arizona State.

Impact Lipsey, an Ames, IA native, starred on senior day, performing at his disruptive best on the defensive end by swiping a season-high six steals to help the Cyclones pull away in the second half. The senior playmaker also tied for the team lead in scoring while his six dimes were the most he's had in over a month. Lipsey finished a strong regular season with averages of 13.3 points, 5.0 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 2.2 steals and will now lead a Cyclone squad into the postseason with legitimate Big 12 championship and Final Four aspirations.

Arizona vs Iowa State basketball live updates: Score, highlights for Big 12 game The Arizona Wildcats and Iowa State Cyclones meet up in a top-10 men's college basketball game on Monday. Follow live updates.

MARCH 3 • USATODAY.COM

Anthony Rise - Doesn't suit up Monday Rise (undisclosed) didn't play in Monday's loss to Arizona.

Impact Rise was a game-time call for this matchup, but in the end, the freshman guard didn't suit up. His absence wasn't a big deal from a fantasy perspective, as he's made just eight appearances overall in 2025-26. It remains to be seen if he'll play against Arizona State on Saturday, March 7.

MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE

Xzavion Mitchell - Doesn't play once again Mitchell (undisclosed) didn't play in Monday's loss to Arizona.

Impact Mitchell hasn't suited up for Iowa State since Dec. 21 despite being listed on the injury report on a steady basis. It remains to be seen if he'll be cleared to play in the regular-season finale against Arizona State on March 7.

MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE

Jamarion Batemon - Tallies 14 off bench in loss Batemon notched 14 points (5-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt) and one assist across 27 minutes during Monday's 73-57 loss to Arizona.

Impact Batemon drained four from downtown, tallying 14 points off the bench as the Cyclones fell in their trip to Arizona. The freshman wing did not have the most efficient performance, hoisting a season-high 14 shots, but was one of the few players to show signs of life offensively against the Wildcats. Batemon has been a capable-if-inconsistent scorer this season but has started to make a more consistent offensive footprint of late, reaching double figures four times in the last six games after having done so five times through his first 24 appearances.

Last Night in College Basketball: Ohio State Upsets Purdue, Big Ten Chaos Ensues

Xzavion Mitchell - GTD Monday Mitchell (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Monday's game against Arizona.

Impact As usual, Mitchell goes from doubtful on the preliminary report to a game-time call. Despite the uncertain status, it would be surprising to see Mitchell play, as he hasn't appeared in a game since Dec. 21.

MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE

Anthony Rise - Game-time call Monday Rise (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Monday's game against Arizona.

Impact Rise was labeled doubtful, then a game-time call before missing Iowa State's most recent game, and he may be on the track to do so once again Monday. His availability will have minimal impact on the rotation, as he has appeared in just eight games this season.
