Tamin Lipsey returns to lead Iowa State basketball after scout team stint

Tamin Lipsey is set to rejoin the starting lineup for Iowa State basketball after a month-long return from injury and scout team duties. Following a meniscus surgery in July, Lipsey gained a fifth year of eligibility thanks to a legal injunction and participated in practices with the scout team to regain conditioning. Coach T.J. Otzelberger praised Lipsey's competitiveness and ability to engage with new teammates. Lipsey made his return to action in an exhibition game on October 25, scoring 14 points against Northwestern. Iowa State is preparing for its season opener against Memphis on November 2 and its home opener against Southern Miss on November 6.
