Summary:

Tamin Lipsey is an agile, skilled point guard that had a good season at Iowa State last season. He had a triple-double in a December 1st win over DePaul, and he is a highly productive playmaker that can do many things on the court. He’s flown under the radar, but he could project to be a solid role player at the NBA level.
