Sustains three-point shooting Grill totaled 20 points (5-9 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound, one assist and four steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 63-60 victory over Oklahoma.

Impact Grill took all nine of his field-goal attempts from beyond the arc for the second game in a row. The senior guard started out the season as a high-volume, low-efficiency three-point shooter, though he's now hit 18 of his 36 three-point attempts over his last six games. Grill has taken 6.2 three-pointers on 8.3 field-goal attempts per game this season, which is netting very positive results thanks to his career-high 39.2 three-point percentage across 12 contests.

Crashes boards in win Grill amassed seven points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and five steals over 33 minutes during Sunday's 71-60 victory over St. John's.

Impact Grill notched a season high in rebounds to make up for his relatively mediocre shooting performance Sunday. The senior guard came off the bench in all 35 games for Iowa State last season, though he's taken on a full-time starting role alongside Tamin Lipsey through the first eight games of the 2022-23 campaign. Grill's primary contributions have still come from deep range for the Cyclones, taking 5.8 of his 8.5 field-goal attempts per game from beyond the arc. However, the three-point specialist has been largely hit or miss, as 11 of his 16 made threes have come in two of his eight games. Grill will look to establish some more consistency against the in-state-rival Hawkeyes on Thursday.

Impact Grill played a prominent role as he got the starting tap in Monday's season opener. The senior played all 35 games off the bench for the Cyclones last season, averaging 6.4 points, 5.8 field-goal attempts, 2.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals. Grill could continue to see an increased role while playing alongside Jaren Holmes and Gabe Kalscheur in the 2022-23 campaign.

Puts in 12 points off bench Grill racked up 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 79-63 loss to West Virginia.

Impact Grill had scored just eight points over the last three games before putting in four three-pointers against West Virginia on Tuesday. While he hasn't always scored lately, Grill has totaled nine steals over the last four games. He will hope to provide another spark off the bench in Saturday's game against Kansas State.

Puts in nine points off bench Grill closed Saturday's 79-70 victory over Texas with nine points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 21 minutes.

Impact Grill has been a nice option off the bench this season for Iowa State. He is now averaging 6.7 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 1.6 three-pointers in 22.7 minutes per game. Grill will look to provide another spark on the road against Texas Tech on Tuesday.

Season-high 20 points Grill ended Sunday's 77-54 win over Southeastern Louisiana with 20 points (7-11 FG, 6-10 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals over 31 minutes.

Impact Grill bounced back from two consecutive scoreless outings with his season high in points. Grill just got hot from behind the arc and the Cyclones rode him from there. He should see quite a few minutes on Tuesday against Chicago State once again.

Team-high 16 points in win Grill accumulated 16 points (5-7 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals across 24 minutes during Saturday's 64-58 victory over Creighton.

Impact Grill's team-high 16 points were enough to push Iowa State to a perfect 8-0 record. Grill has been a nice piece off the bench, averaging 7.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.8 three-pointers in 23.9 minutes per contest. In-state rival Iowa will be up next for the Cyclones on Thursday.

Plays 30 minutes off bench Grill closed Tuesday's 84-73 victory over Kennesaw State with 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 30 minutes.

Impact Grill played the second-most minutes on the team despite coming off the bench. He followed head coach T.J. Otzelberger from UNLV to Iowa State, so it's not overly surprising he saw that much action right out of the gate. Tyrese Hunter, Gabe Kalscheur, and Izaiah Brockington look to be the starters going forward, but Grill and Tre Jackson should mix into the backcourt rotation off the bench as capable scorers.
