The backstory:

A federal grand jury in West Virginia indicted Kriisa last month.

The 6-foot-3 guard from Estonia began his college career in 2020 at the University of Arizona, where he led the Pac-12 in assists during his two full seasons.

He then transferred to West Virginia, where he was suspended for the first nine games of his lone season there after admitting he received impermissible benefits while at Arizona.

Kriisa transferred to Kentucky in 2024, but was also limited to nine games due to a foot injury.

He transferred to Cincinnati for his final year of eligibility and started 12 games before suffering a separated shoulder in February.
