How to watch, stream and listen to Iowa State women's basketball vs. Kansas State today
AMES - As the Iowa State women's basketball team prepared for its Wednesday showdown with Kansas State, questions swirled whether or not this would be when Wildcats star Ayoka Lee finally made her long-awaited return.
Cyclones coach Bill Fennelly had no doubts, though.
"She'll play," Fennelly said with a smile while meeting with reporters on Tuesday.
Slowing down Lee, if she does indeed make her return to the court, will be one of the biggest tasks for the Cyclones when they host No. 6 Kansas State on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., at Hilton Coliseum. Lee, who hasn't played in a game since Jan. 13, has been out with an ankle injury.
"I look forward to that matchup," said Iowa State freshman post player Audi Crooks.
Lee has been one of the biggest stars of the Big 12 Conference, averaging 22 points and 10.3 rebounds per game this season. She has been sorely missed by the Wildcats, who have lost two of their last three games. Iowa State needs a win itself, having dropped five of its last six games.
