Four years ago, Chris Acker’s wife asked him what it would take for the family to live in Hawai’i.
“I have to be a part of the UH men’s basketball program,” was Acker’s reply.
True to his word, Acker and his family are in the process of making the move from Los Angeles to Honolulu this month. He was recently named an assistant coach for the UH basketball team by new head coach Eran Ganot.
“Basically, Coach Eran and I crossed paths a couple of times at different recruiting events,” Acker said.
