NASSAU, Bahamas – Iowa State opened its foreign tour to the Bahamas Sunday with a 119-48 victory over Lucayans. The Cyclones opened the game on a 15-0 run and never looked back.

“Over the past eight weeks, we’ve worked on the connectivity of our team,” Iowa State Head Coach T.J. Otzelberger said. “After going against each other in practice over that time, I was proud of the way our guys played in their first game against a different opponent.”

Curtis Jones led all scorers with 32 points, connecting on 8-of-12 3-point attempts. Keshon Gilbert added 14 points, while Tamin Lipsey had 11. Tre King and Demarion Watson were also in double figures with 10 points. Milan Momcilovic led all players with eight rebounds, while Omaha Biliew added seven. Gilbert and Lipsey each had five boards. Watson had five steals, while Jelani Hamilton and Lipsey each had three. Jackson Paveletzke had seven assists, while Lipsey and Gilbert each had three. Hason Ward added two blocked shots.

“Curtis did a great job of hunting his shot today,” Otzelberger said. “Our guards spread the ball around and found the hot hand.”

The Cyclones were 48-of-83 (58%) from the field and 12-of-26 (46%) from 3-point range. Iowa State held Lucayans to 22 percent (10-of-45) shooting, including 2-of-13 (15%) from downtown. The Cyclones assisted on 20 of their 48 made baskets.
