Reports: Arizona PG Kerr Kriisa commits to West Virginia

Former Arizona point guard Kerr Kriisa will play the 2023-24 season at West Virginia, multiple outlets reported Wednesday.

West Virginia can use an experienced guard with the loss of Erik Stevenson, who averaged 15.4 points and 2.5 assists per game but is out of eligibility.

Kriisa led the Pac-12 in assists in the 2022-23 season and started the past two seasons for the Wildcats.

He has three-year averages of 9.4 points, 4.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 76 games (70 starts) for Arizona.

He led the Pac-12 with 180 assists in 2022-23, also averaging a league-best 5.14 assists per game.

The Mountaineers were 19-15 (7-11 Big 12) in 2022-23.

Arizona was shocked and ousted by No. 15 seed Princeton in the NCAA Tournament last season. Kriisa helped lead the Wildcats to the Sweet 16 in 2021-22, when the No. 1 seed lost to Houston.
