There's nothing to question when it comes to the effectiveness of Iowa State’s guards.
Even with Keshon Gilbert sidelined, Tamin Lipsey and Curtis Jones still make up one of the best backcourts in the Big 12. Jones and Lipsey both have a chance to make All-Big 12 this season.
Yet, neither of them was the best guard on Eddie Sutton Court on Feb. 25, 2025.
Oklahoma State guard Arturo Dean outclassed them both, combining with center Abou Ousmane to lead the Cowboys to a 74-68 upset over the No. 9 Cyclones.
Dean turned in one of his best offensive performances in an OSU uniform, scoring 14 points and dishing out four assists.
