Possibly. Not sure how anyone could say with confidence that he'll be ready for a huge role.
Dominykas Pleta Commits
- Thread starter Drew0311
- Start date
The discussion has been about next year. Not many had confidence in Matt Thomas or Naz early on either.
We'll see.
You haven't seen him play at all? That's weird, I've seen him play probably 6-8 games this year.
LOL. A total of 40 min against non-slappies and you can project his career. That's impressive.
If Julius Michalik, Juri Hubalek, and Jackson Vroman had a love child it would be Dominykas.
He's a remarkably good-looking young person for having those parents.
Which is pretty much what I hear every time somebody meets my kids.
His shooting stats don't indicate the "stretch" part. He shoots low volume at under 30% from 3.
Yeah kind of hard when u are a freshman behind three all conference players who are juniors and seniors
I think the frosh are interesting. You're right about who they are playing behind but also, we've never seen a freshman sit the bench for TJ and then play as a soph, pretty sure Fish would be the only one in that category who even stuck around. It's a small sample size but its been all or nothing with them for TJ, feels like Nojus and Rock will buck that trend but they will be the first.
Welcome to Ames Iowa Dom! Pardon if I shorten your name.Let's go. 6'9 Kid from Germany. Already 20 years old and has played on some good German teams.

Nächster Wechsel aus der BBL in die NCAA: Meines Wissens spielt Ludwigsburgs Dominykas Pleta ab Sommer für Iowa State. Dominykas Pleta has given his commitment to play for Iowa State next season. #Cyclones #C5Cbsky.app
I hope you enjoy Iowa State and your time in the US! Go Cyclones!
It’s a new era. Imagine it’s a bit easier sell if you’re going to FF/NC, so let’s see where this season ends up.
KU hasn’t had as many of those developmental players that were the backbone of Self’s winning teams of late either.
I think Milan needs to add some strength so he can post up and use his fade away. Otherwise, he's a wing who can hit a 3 when open, somewhat like Korver.
I think he only was in position to shoot the fade away one time last game, wouldn't mind if they do that a few more times in a game.
Batemon is the only one of the 5 I'd bank on hitting many jumpers, at least early. I do think he's an extremely high level bucket getter and shooter though, so at least the 1 is a really really good one.
Moore, Toure, Pleta, and Mitchell all having "developing" shots is gonna be interesting but the mix of toughness, athleticism, and willingness to get after it defensively is a formula we know fairly well. Hoping one or two of those guys can add it to their game a bit more though.
Nojus is stuck behind 3 elite guards, Milan and a 5th year guy who isn't great but can play defense. There's only 200 minutes to give out and the first 4 take up 120 at least.
