Report: Arizona ‘hopeful’ Kerr Kriisa will be available for first weekend of NCAA Tournament

The early report on Kerr Kriisa’s ankle sprain diagnosis is out, and it’s optimistic.

The Athletic’s Seth Davis tweeted Friday morning, “The early indication from Arizona is that they are hopeful Kerr Kriisa will be available to play next week. Ankle sprains are tricky, but initial signs are promising. Fingers crossed!”

According to Davis’ report, that means Kriisa will miss Arizona’s Pac-12 Tournament semifinal date with Colorado on Friday as well as the conference championship game if the Wildcats are to advance.

That matters little compared to Kriisa’s availability in the first and potentially second round of the NCAA Tournament.
