Impact Momcilovic chucked up a season-high 14 shots, converting on just four of them but still pacing the short-handed Cyclones with 16 points. The point total was the most Momcilovic has scored since early December, taking on a greater scoring role thanks in part to the absence of Curtis Jones and Keshon Gilbert, Iowa State's two leading scorers. Momcilovic has missed seven games this season but is the team's fourth highest scorer, averaging 10.7 points per contest.

The sophomore forward returned to practice this Thursday, but his return timeline remains unknown heading into Iowa State's home game against the Horned Frogs this weekend.

Momcilovic was a key contributor for Iowa State prior to his injury, averaging 10.3 points and 3.5 rebounds per game across 15 contests.

Impact Rothstein's update confirms Momcilovic will be out for at least one week. During it, Iowa State's team is scheduled to play games against TCU and at Central Florida. Considering that Rothstein's statement says "a week or two" concerning Momcilovic being available, he may also be unavailable for matchups against Cincinnati (Feb. 15) and Colorado (Feb. 18), though there is a decent chance he may be game-time decisions for both dates.

Iowa State forward Milan Momcilovic hurt his hand in practice this week and is out indefinitely

JANUARY 15, 2025 • Associated Press

Out indefinitely Momcilovic is out indefinitely with a left hand injury, per the Des Moines Register.

Impact Momcilovic is a key starter for the Cyclones. He averages 10.3 points and 3.5 rebounds as a wing, and has been a sniper from long range, hitting 44.3 percent of his shots from beyond the arc. He suffered the injury in practice, and currently has no timetable for a return. Curtis Jones, one of if not the best sixth man in the nation, could feasibly enter the starting five in his stead.

Drains four triples Momcilovic racked up 15 points (4-7 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 30 minutes during Saturday's 74-55 victory over Baylor.

Impact Momcilovic took all seven of his shot from beyond the arc, connecting on four en route to a 15-point performance. The sophomore forward had connected on just 29.4-percent of his shot in scoring 15 points over his previous two games combined but seemed to regain his stroke during Saturday's dominant victory.

Rebounds with solid performance Momcilovic ended Sunday's 83-51 win over Omaha with 13 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one block and two steals in 26 minutes.

Impact Momcilovic contributed a solid all-around game Sunday, connecting on 5-7 shots (71.4 percent) from the field while adding five boards, a couple steals and a block. The defensive contributions were a rare feat for Momcilovic, who entered the day with only two thefts and three rejections through the first nine games of the season. Offensively, the sophomore forward entered the day having scored just five points in two of his previous three games. Despite those down performances, Momcilovic is still averaging a solid 11.8 points per game while shooting 50.6 percent from the field and 46.9 percent from beyond the arc.
