OFFICIAL: Kerr Kriisa Signs with WVU

On Friday, West Virginia men's basketball head coach Bob Huggins announced the signing of Arizona transfer guard Kerr Kriisa and he will have two years of eligibility remaining.

“Kerr is an outstanding guard who our guys will love playing with,” Huggins said. “He shares the ball extremely well and is more than capable of getting the ball to the open guy. Kerr has tremendous floor vision. He is a very efficient 3-point shooter. His experience playing at a high level will be invaluable to our team.”

Kriisa led the Pac-12 Conference in assists the last two seasons and was the first player to lead the league in consecutive seasons since 2001 (Brandon Granville, USC), averaging 4.9 assists the last two seasons while averaging 9.8 points per game.

The 6-foot-3, 190-pound guard from Tartu, Estonia ranks 10th in Wildcat history with 177 career 3-point field goals made and fifth in Arizona history with 503 career 3-point field goal attempts. He is one of five players in Pac-12 history to record multiple triple-doubles in a career.
