Career highlights and awards

Kristinn Pálsson (born 17 December 1997) is an Icelandic basketball player and a member of the Icelandic national team.[1]

Basketball career

Early career

Kristinn started playing basketball with the junior teams of Njarðvík at the age of 6.[2] He played his first senior games with its reserve team in the Icelandic Cup during the 2011–12 and 2012–13 seasons. During the summer of 2013, he signed with A.S. Stella Azzurra, amateur basketball club in Rome, to play for its junior team program.[3][4]

College career

After two seasons with Stella Azzurra, Kristinn joined Marist College in 2015.[5] During his freshman season, he averaged 8.7 points and 4.4 rebounds. In December 2017, during his junior season, he announced that he was leaving the school due to a death in his family.[6]

Return to Iceland

In January 2018, Kristinn returned to Iceland and intended to join his hometown team of Njarðvík. However, after three games FIBA revoked his playing license[7] as Stella Azzurra was demanding compensation due to him being a member of their team when he turned 18-years old. Although he played for Njarðvík's juniors teams from the age of 6 to 16, FIBA agreed with Azzurra and Njarðvík was forced to pay a 9,600 euros in compensation.[2]

In May 2020, Kristinn signed with Grindavík.[8][9] On 29 April 2021, he scored a game winning three pointer at the buzzer against ÍR.[10] For the season, he averaged 12.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists.

Netherlands

On 24 June 2022, Kristinn signed with Dutch club Aris Leeuwarden of the BNXT League.[11]

Return to Iceland

On 24 August 2023, Kristinn signed with Valur.[12] On 24 September 2023, he won the Icelandic Super Cup after Valur defeated Tindastóll 80–72.[13]

National team career
