Nebraska Basketball Freshman Leo Curtis Dominates, Leads Iceland to FIBA U20 Win

Nebraska basketball’s freshman phenom continues to shine while competing overseas.
Leo Curtis, the 7-foot-1, 220-pound forward from Iceland, dominated in international competition again on Monday. Following a 17 point, nine rebound, five assist, and three steal performance in the 90-76 loss to Serbia on Saturday, the Husker freshman responded with a double-double performance in a win over Slovenia. Iceland would sneak past Slovenia 76-74 as Curtis finished shooting 6-11 from the field and 8-10 at the free throw line with 20 points, 11 rebounds, six blocks, four assists, and one steal.
The future Husker is competing in the FIBA U20 EuroBasket tournament throughout the weekend. He is representing Iceland for the third straight summer, having previously played in the 2024 U20 EuroBasket and the 2023 U18 EuroBasket events. The 2025 tournament is taking place in Greece.
Nebraska commit Frithrik Leo Curtis (🇮🇸, ’05 – 7’2″, C) put on a show today against Slovenia in the #FIBAU20, leading Iceland to its first win:

Curtis is now averaging a double-double in pool play, going for 18.5 points, 10 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 3 blocks, and 2 steals per contest after two games. He is on pace to crush his past EuroBasket performances, in which he averaged 5.3 points and 4.1 rebounds per game in 2024 at the U20 games after a standout 2023 tournament as part of the U18 competition, averaging 8.6 points and 7.0 rebounds two years ago.
The forward from Reykjavik, Iceland, spent his senior season at Cambrigde Arts, Technology and Science (CATS) Academy in Massachusetts. Curtis earned national prep All-America honorable-mention honors, averaging 12.3 points, 10.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 2.7 blocks per game in his lone season in the United States.
“Leo’s combination of size and skill set is an ideal fit for our system” Nebraska head coach Fred Hoiberg said after Curtis’ signing with the Huskers in May. “He is a natural stretch forward who can initiate offense and put pressure on the rim. At 7-foot-1, he can impact both ends of the floor. He played for one of the best prep teams in the country this past season, and that will help him in his adjustment to the college game. He is a natural athlete who played soccer before turning his attention to basketball. He is just scratching the surface of his potential, and I believe his best days are ahead of him.”
Curtis and his Iceland teammates will aim to compete throughout the competition through July 20 as pool play continues for the first half of the tournament. Iceland remains with its remaining contest in Pool D play, facing France later this week. The top two teams in each pool advancing to the Round of 16 starting on July 16 and the championship game on July 20. Contests can be viewed on the FIBA YouTube channel.

Social media reacts to Nebraska legend Ndamukong Suh’s retirement

A Nebraska legend made a significant announcement on Saturday. Former Husker Ndamukong Suh announced on social media that he is officially retiring from professional football.
In a post exceeding 300 words, Suh laid out his decision, reminiscing about his father’s passing, which had occurred one year prior.
“Before he passed, he gave me one final piece of advice,” Suh said in his post. “It’s time to let football go. You’ve done everything you set out to do. Now it’s time for the next chapter.”
Suh’s been out of NFL play since 2022, last donning a jersey for the Philadelphia Eagles, making eight regular-season appearances with the team. He finished with 10 total tackles and one sack in that stretch.
Suh spent 13 seasons in the NFL after being selected second overall by the Detroit Lions in the 2010 draft. He wasted no time becoming a major force to be reckoned with in the NFL, winning the defensive rookie of the year and becoming a first-team All-Pro.
Suh earned two more first-team All-Pros for the Lions before joining the Miami Dolphins and becoming the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history at the time. He spent three years with the Dolphins before signing with the Los Angeles Rams and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and then closed his career with the Eagles.
Suh appeared in three Super Bowls in his NFL career, one with each of his final three teams. He hoisted the Vince Lombardi Trophy with the Buccaneers in 2020.
Alongside his retirement, Suh also revealed his plans moving forward, announcing he created a podcast called No Free Lunch.
“It’s about real conversations, real strategy, and real education,” Suh said. “Because freedom doesn’t come from fame, it comes from knowledge and how you move.”
At Nebraska, Suh won a slew of awards in his Husker tenure, including in his senior year, becoming a Heisman Finalist and the first defensive player to win the Associated Press College Player of the Year Award.
He led Nebraska in tackles for two straight seasons, racking up 85 in his senior year, the most by a defensive lineman since 1974. Suh also led the Huskers in tackles for loss (24), sacks (12), quarterback hurries (26), and blocked kicks (3) in 2009.
His 24 tackles for loss ranked him second on the Nebraska season list, and his 12 sacks ranked him third in school history. He also holds the school record for career interceptions by a Nebraska lineman, snatching four in his college career.
Suh finished his Husker run with 215 career tackles, ranking him 24th in school history and fourth among defensive linemen. He also tallied 57 career tackles for loss, 1.5 behind the school record holder, Grant Wistrom. He also finished fourth in school history in career sacks, with 24 career sacks, which is tied for fourth in Nebraska history.
