Dominates with career night Lipsey racked up 25 points (9-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), one rebound, six assists, one block and three steals in 36 minutes during Monday's 96-80 victory over Mississippi State.

Impact Lipsey posted a career high in scoring while also contributing his usual output as a ball distributor and elite defender. The senior guard saw his numbers take a dip across the board last season after a breakout sophomore campaign but he is on fire to start this season and has performed as the best two-way point guard in the country to this point. Through three games, the star floor general is already on pace to set career-best marks in scoring, assists and steals, having shot 56.8-percent from the floor while averaging 17.7 points, 5.7 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 4.3 thefts across 30.7 minutes.

Disruptive force on defense Lipsey contributed 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists and five steals in 31 minutes during Thursday's 102-62 victory over Grambling State.

Impact Lipsey has lived up to his billing as one of the most disruptive guards in the country, recording five thefts for the second-consecutive game. The senior point guard who has started all 105 games in which he has played for his hometown school suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain in late September but has been at his best through the first two games, averaging 14.0 points, 5.0 boards and 5.5 assists to go along with his elite work on the defensive end.

NOVEMBER 4 • Associated Press

Healthy for season opener Lipsey (knee) is in the starting lineup for Monday's season opener against Fairleigh-Dickinson, Alex Busse of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Lipsey suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain back in September, and he was projected to miss the beginning of this season. The starting point guard has luckily gotten healthy quicker than expected. He's coming off back-to-back seasons with at least 30 starts, double-digit points per game and multiple steals per game. He should be one of the focal points of the Cyclones' game plans this campaign.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Looking available for season opener Lipsey (knee) is expected to be available for Monday's game against Fairleigh-Dickinson, Jeff Goodman of On3.com reports.

Impact Lipsey was expected to be cleared before Monday's game, but his clearance did not guarantee Iowa State would use him. By being available, ISU can use Lipsey, so it looks more likely that the Cyclones will use him during their upcoming game. Ideally, there will be a clearer update on Lipsey's availability by Monday, and the team's Thursday practice will serve as a benchmark to determine where he is at.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be cleared soon Lipsey (knee) is expected to be cleared before Iowa State's game Nov. 3 against Fairleigh-Dickinson, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Rothstein's update indicates that Lipsey is looking more probable than questionable as he and Iowa State prepare for their 2025-26 season. Considering how much credibility the Cyclones have established with him manning their point guard position, Rothstein's announcement is a big deal. Lipsey is coming off back-to-back seasons with at least 30 starts, double-digit points per game and multiple steals per game. For many players, the numbers are excellent, but they are a minimal expectation for a talented player like Lipsey.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

On track to return for opener Lipsey (knee) is on track to return for Iowa State's opener against FDU on Nov. 3, per Eugene Rapay of The Journal News.

Impact Lipsey suffered a Grade 2 MCL Sprain and was set to miss 4-6 weeks as of late September, but the point guard is reportedly on track for Iowa State's opener. Lipsey, Iowa State's table setter and starting point guard of three years, is coming off a a solid season in which he averaged 10.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.0 steals on 48/33/76 shooting splits. In his absence, the Cyclones should get a chance to evaluate freshman guard Jamarion Batemon.

Iowa State's Tamin Lipsey sidelined for 4-6 weeks with knee injury

Iowa State starting point guard Tamin Lipsey will miss four to six weeks after injuring his knee at practice

SEPTEMBER 24 • Associated Press

Sidelined 4-6 weeks Lipsey (knee) suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain and will be out for 4-6 weeks, per Cyclone Fanatic.

Impact Lipsey is likely to miss the start of Iowa State's 2025-2026 season, as his recovery timeline will likely bleed into the Cyclones' regular season schedule. The starting point guard in Ames of three seasons is coming off another solid year, averaging 10.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.0 steals while starting 34 games. In his stead, expect more responsibility to fall on Jamarion Batemon's plate in the Cyclones' backcourt.
