Kriisa was suspended for the first 9 games of the season for receiving inappropriate benefits last season at Arizona. However, he put together a pretty strong season with career highs in points per game, rebounds and three point percentage (42.4%). It’s unclear at this time which program Kriisa is interested in going to to finish out his collegiate career, but he is widely regarded as an outstanding point guard who many teams will be interested in adding.
