Iowa’s Keegan Murray started his NBA lottery pick story at Prairie High in Cedar Rapids.
If Keegan Murray goes in the top five picks of Thursday’s NBA Draft, he will be highest-drafted Hawkeye ever. Ricky Davis in 1998 was Iowa’s last first-round pick.

The last player from Cedar Rapids to be taken in an NBA draft will be smiling as the next one gets announced Thursday night. Russ Millard, a second-round NBA draft pick in 1996, was a big part of some big Iowa wins.
Moment No. 6: Lisa Bluder and Megan Gustafson became the first player-coach duo from the Big Ten to sweep the Naismith National Coach of the Year and National Player of the Year awards.
Moment No. 7: Christine Grant pulled off what she later described as her “best recruiting job I ever did in my life,” swaying C. Vivian Stringer to come to Iowa.
Iowa’s Big Ten opponents for the 2022-23 men’s basketball season were announced Thursday.
The Big Ten released women’s basketball matchups, but not dates, for the 2022-23 season. Iowa’s home schedule features dates with Indiana, Maryland and Nebraska.
Moment No. 8: In a 22-day period, Iowa women’s basketball won two Big Ten championships and had three sellouts at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
Former Iowa men’s basketball player Austin Ash is getting put on a full-ride scholarship by The Citadel for his final season of eligibility.
Former Iowa standout Matt Gatens has come home, to help Fran McCaffery coach Hawkeyes men’s basketball.
In terms of name recognition, Cedar Rapids Prairie couldn’t have gone bigger with hiring Kenyon Murray as its next girls’ basketball head coach.
