Prentiss Nixon brought downhill pressure, steals, and a veteran edge to Iowa State
In the 2019-20 season at Iowa State, Prentiss Nixon started 29 of 32 games, averaged 9.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.3 steals, and led the team with 31 charges taken—classic glue-guy stuff with bite. He wasn’t a flashy volume scorer, but he consistently gave the Cyclones defense energy, toughness, and possession-winning plays, plus enough shooting to punish you when left open. If you want a guard who competes every trip, makes opponents uncomfortable, and brings senior poise, Nixon fits the “winning details” lane nicely.
