Kevin Kruger (born May 1, 1983) is an American professional basketball player.
The son of UNLV Runnin' Rebels basketball coach Lon Kruger, he attended Arizona State University, but after playing 3 years and graduating because he was redshirted his freshman year, he transferred to UNLV to play for his dad.[1] During his one year there he helped UNLV advance to the Sweet Sixteen,[2] only to lose to Oregon.[3]
After his collegiate career, Kruger was not drafted and would later be given an invitation to the Orlando Magic's training camp.[4][5] Before the season began, he was cut and drafted by the Flash, the Utah Jazz's D-League team.[6] He had a career high 35 points against the Reno Bighorns on March 1, 2009.
He also went to Walton High School in Marietta, Georgia.[7][8]
