Is Kerr Kriisa one of the best point guards in college basketball? The people behind an award honoring that position think so.
The UA junior is one of 25 players named to the preseason watch list for the Bob Cousy Award, given annually to Division I’s best point guard. He’s one of three Pac-12 players on the list along with Oregon’s Will Richardson and UCLA’s Tyger Campbell.
The 6-foot-3 Kriisa is coming off a 2021-22 season in which he averaged 9.7 points and 4.7 assists, ranking second in the Pac-12 in assists per game.
