Kerry Kittles (born June 12, 1974) is an American basketball coach and former professional basketball player. A 6 ft 5 in (1.96 m) shooting guard, Kittles played for the New Jersey Nets and the Los Angeles Clippers in an NBA career that spanned from 1996 to 2005.
Kittles was raised in New Orleans and attended St. Augustine High School. He then attended Villanova University, where he led the Villanova Wildcats to the 1994 NIT Championship. As a junior, Kittles made the All-Big East team and helped Villanova win the 1995 Big East tournament championship. Villanova reached the NCAA tournament in 1996, Kittles's senior season. Kittles was named the Big East Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year in 1995 and was a consensus first-team All-American in 1996. He holds Villanova's all-time record for most points scored (2,243), was inducted into the team's Hall of Fame, and had his #30 retired.
Kittles was selected by the New Jersey Nets with the eighth pick in the 1996 NBA draft. In his first season, he was named to the All-Rookie Second Team. He sat out his entire fifth season, in 2000–01, due to rehabilitation from off-season surgery on his right knee. Kittles played in the 2002 and 2003 NBA Finals as a member of the Nets. Following seven seasons with the Nets, Kittles was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers in a salary purge. After one injury-riddled year with the Clippers, Kittles retired from the NBA.
Kittles was an assistant coach at Princeton from 2016 to 2018.
