PORTLAND, Ore. – Former University of Portland player and director of basketball operations Kramer Knutson has been promoted to assistant coach, first-year head coach Terry Porter announced on Thursday. Knutson was a four-year starter for the Pilots from 2007-11.
The Mesa, Ariz. native concluded a four-year professional career overseas in 2015 to accept the director of basketball operations position with the Pilots for the 2015-16 season. Knutson was retained in that same role upon the hiring of Porter as head coach in April.
"Kramer has proven himself to be a valuable part of this program," Porter noted.
