Maybe Iowa State could actually blame its 41-point performance in the NCAA Tournament, where it shot just 23% from the field, on the rims.
during the Cyclones’ opening-round game against Pittsburgh that revealed Iowa State asked Greensboro Coliseum building personnel to look at their basket pregame and “check if the rim was level” — resulting in what the NCAA labeled a “minor adjustment.”Then, the Cyclones proceeded to shoot 29% on that basket in the opening half — though senior forward Tre King tried downplaying its effect postgame..
Iowa State didn’t have one of the country’s top offenses this season, but it still averaged 67.6 points per game during the regular season — only shooting below 40% from the field four times, and never dipping beneath 30%. The Cyclones closed their deficit to seven points by halftime, but then they managed just 18 points total for the rest of the game.Getty Images
