Zelee was offered by the Cyclones on Monday and quickly turned around with a commitment less than 48 hours later.
The fast-rising 6’2, 185 pound guard from Austin, TX is unranked nationally by most major recruiting outlets but is a three-star prospect on On3Sports.com. He picked up an offer from Arizona State hours before Iowa State offered. He also had offers from Drake and Texas A&M Corpus Cristi.
Zelee joins three-star guards Yusef Gray Jr. and Christian Wiggins in the 2026 class.
