Tamin Lipsey's NBA Draft Rise

Tamin Lipsey, Iowa State’s defensive maestro and Big 12 steals king, is poised for the NBA draft after a historic college career. With 314 steals—most in Big 12 history—and a gold medal from USA Basketball, Lipsey combines elite athleticism, basketball IQ, and leadership. A four-year starter, academic All-American, and state champion at the high school level, he’s built his game on disrupting opponents and smart playmaking. His rare stat line—1,500+ points, 600+ assists, 500+ rebounds, 300+ steals—makes him a rare two-way talent. While concerns linger about his shooting and size, his potential as a savvy floor general and defensive pest draws comparisons to T.J. McConnell, and he’s projected as a two-way NBA asset.
