Iowa State basketball decided to forego additional warmup time ahead of its first-round matchup against Pittsburgh in the NCAA Tournament after a slight adjustment was made to one of the rims at the Greensboro Coliseum, the NCAA said in a statement.

It is a decision that the Cyclones may have regretted as they had their worst shooting performance of the entire season en route to a 59-41 loss against the Panthers. They shot just 23.3 percent from the field and 9.5 percent from three-point range.
