Iago Stanback brings Florida-groomed scoring punch and two-way upside to Missouri State
Stanback profiles as a long, versatile guard who arrived at Missouri State after a decorated high-school run in Naples, Florida, where he was the 2022-23 Palmetto Ridge Player of the Year and averaged 20.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.8 blocks per game. He also owns a strong pedigree from Portugal’s youth national-team pathway, which adds poise and international seasoning. The big question is usage and readiness at the college level: if a team wants a competitive, high-upside wing/guard with defensive activity and scoring instincts, he’s intriguing; if it needs immediate proven production, the sample is still thin.
