Iowa State’s Killyan Toure has successful shoulder surgery after injuring it working at a camp

Iowa State's Killyan Toure successfully underwent surgery on his right shoulder on Friday after suffering an injury while working at a camp in Salt Lake City. The forward, who hails from France, is projected to return to basketball action in January. Iowa State head coach T.J. Otzelberger expressed disappointment over the setback, noting that Toure had been a vital contributor during the first half of the season.

The 6-foot-3 guard previously held the school record for starts by a freshman, tallying all 37 games last season. Toure's performance included an impressive NCAA Tournament debut where he scored 25 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, and dished out six assists against Tennessee State. This marked the first time a freshman had achieved those numbers in a single NCAA Tournament game.
