Canada’s Lindell Wigginton, Young closer to returning for Iowa State
AMES, Iowa — Injured Iowa State star Lindell Wigginton’s shirt read “Then What?” when he met with reporters for the first time in weeks Thursday
That’s a question the Cyclones will soon be asking themselves once the 20-year-old from Dartmouth, N.S., and Solomon Young return to the lineup.
Wigginton (strained foot), a sophomore guard, and Young (strained groin), a junior forward, won’t play on Saturday when the Cyclones (8-2) face Drake (6-1) in the final Big Four Classic in Des Moines. But both could be back within a week, leaving Iowa State coach Steve Prohm with some decisions to make with a roster that will soon feature about a dozen Big 12-calibre players.
“There’s not going to be any drastic changes,” Prohm said. “It’s not really roles changing. At the end of the day it might be a couple of minutes (lost) here or there for a couple of guys.”
