Nate Heise is a senior guard who provides scoring punch off the bench, averaging 5.4 points in 25.0 minutes per game. He takes care of the ball with just 0.7 turnovers per game.
Nate Heise took the long road to Iowa State, spending four seasons at Northern Iowa before transferring to the Cyclones as a graduate student. The forward steadily improved during his time with the Panthers, culminating in a career-best 13.5 points and 6.1 rebounds per game as a junior in 2023-24, when he led UNI in scoring while shooting a career-high 35.5 percent from three. Despite his individual success, UNI never reached the NCAA Tournament during his tenure, a fact that motivated his decision to transfer. Iowa State assistant coaches Kyle Green and Erik Crawford, who had previously coached Heise at UNI, helped recruit him to Ames. In his first season with the Cyclones in 2024-25, Heise appeared in all 35 games and started seven of the final eight contests, averaging 5.1 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.3 steals. He scored a season-high 13 points against Ole Miss in the NCAA Tournament, finally fulfilling his longtime dream of competing in March Madness. Heise returned to Iowa State for the 2025-26 season.
