Fortunately for Iowa State, two of the five players coming on visits are
perfect options to be the Cyclones’ next star player.
The first one is
Jaquan Johnson, a sophomore guard who played for the Bradley Braves. Johnson has been
incredible. He averaged 16.9 points per game in his sophomore year and added
3.9 rebounds and 3.6 assists.

He had three 30+ point games last season, with his best game coming against
the Belmont Bruins in an overtime victory over the conference leaders.
Johnson perfectly fits the mold to be the star player of Iowa State for the
future. He’s a dynamic guard, one who can score with ease. Also, he can
rebound the ball to an extent, as well as dish the ball out like a point
guard.
Sometimes, players move up a level and really slow down, but there is reason
to believe that Johnson won’t slow down and continue at a similar pace with
the Cyclones.
