Kentucky basketball officially announces signing of Kerr Kriisa

Former Arizona and West Virginia point guard Kerr Kriisa is officially a Wildcat. News of Kriisa’s commitment broke Wednesday, and on Thursday, the Kentucky Men’s Basketball Twitter account announced him as part of the team.

Here was the official word from an article on the UK Athletics website announcing the addition of Kerr Kriisa:

“dding to the backcourt, Kentucky men’s basketball head coach Mark Pope announced on Thursday that Kerr Kriisa (pronounced KREE-suh), a 6-foot-3 veteran guard who has played at both Arizona and West Virginia, will transfer to Kentucky ahead of the 2024-25 season. He will have one season of eligibility remaining.”

That last sentence is key. Since Kriisa has been around long enough to earn the extra COVID year, this will be his fifth season of college ball. However, he only appeared in eight games as a freshman, but since his absence was due to a suspension he will not be able to get another year back for that season. 2024-25 will be his last in college.
