Steinbeck is a transfer from Blair (Nebraska), coming across the river to play his sophomore year at CBAL. A talented wing with great size and length, he’s a high-level shotmaker who can bury shots routinely off both the dribble and the catch. With his size, he can shoot over defenders, and he’s an adept ball-handler and shot creator off the dribble. He should step into a big-time role immediately for the Lynx as a sophomore.

Steinbeck played his freshman year at Blair (NE) before transferring across the river to play his sophomore year at Council Bluffs Lincoln. He has good size and length on the wing, is a knockdown shooter off the catch, and has the size and athleticism to be a versatile defender. He’ll make an immediate impact with the Lynx.

He didn’t have the best shooting weekend, but he is a clear shooter. His form looks smooth, and he shoots it with confidence whether his shot was falling or not.

Kalan can also get to the rim and beat defenders of the dribble. He is a good finisher around the rim who has good touch in that area.

Kalan dominated in the game I caught on Sunday, as the freshman showcased his super versatile game. The 6’5” wing could handle the ball in space, being able to push the tempo and create transition opportunities. He is a knockdown shooter from beyond the arc, pulling up off the dribble with confidence. He could use his handle and length to work himself inside for tough finishes as well. Steinbeck displayed a lot of potential and will be a prospect to watch in Nebraska’s 2028 class.
