Curtis Stinson returns

DES MOINES, Ia- Liked what you saw out of Curtis Stinson Thursday night? Iowa Energy coach Nick Nurse is excited about what he could see.
The 6’3, 215 pound former ISU guard made his debut with the D-League team last night with a 16 point performance at Wells Fargo Arena.
“He’s got good size and strength which is good at the NBA level,” Nurse said.
So good that Nurse thinks Stinson is, “on the fringe of the NBA,” he said.
Stinson brought many of the 4,375 fans to their feet when he checked into the game late in the second quarter.
With six games remaining on the Energy’s schedule, Nurse hopes to have him back for next season.
Iowa has three home games remaining this season with their next coming Thursday when they host the Dakota Wizards.
Will the addition of Stinson bring you to the Well? Nurse is banking on it.
"I think there are a lot of Cyclone fans and this just gives them more of a reason to come and cheer on the Energy," he said.
