Victor Vladimirovich Khryapa (also trans. Viktor;[1] Russian: Виктор Владимирович Хряпа; born August 3, 1982) is a Russian professional basketball player who plays for CSKA Moscow of the VTB United League. Standing at 6 ft 9 in (2.06 m), he plays at the power forward and small forward positions.

Professional career

Khryapa played for Khimik Engels in 1999-00, and for Avtodor Saratov in 2000-02. In 2002, Khryapa was signed by CSKA Moscow, with whom he won two Russian Championships in 2003 and 2004.

Khryapa was the 22nd overall selection of the 2004 NBA Draft. He was chosen by the New Jersey Nets and then subsequently traded to the Portland Trail Blazers for Eddie Gill. Then on June 28, 2006, he was traded to the Chicago Bulls along with Tyrus Thomas, for the rights to LaMarcus Aldridge.

In February 2008, the Chicago Bulls bought out Khryapa's contract after the forward expressed frustration with his lack of playing time. He had appeared in just nine games in the 2007-08 NBA season to that point, averaging 3.6 points per game and 2.2 rebounds per game.

Khryapa intended to return to Russia as a member of CSKA Moscow,[2] and signed with his former club on February 12, 2008, on a four and a half year contract.[3] With CSKA he won the Russian Championship in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, the VTB United League Championship in 2010 and the Euroleague Championship in 2008. In May 2014, he was named to the All-Euroleague Second Team of the Euroleague, second consecutive in his career.[4]

Khryapa missed the first half of 2014–15 season due to the ankle injury rehabilitation. On December 10, 2014, he underwent surgery which kept him off-the-court for three months. He returned to action in a game against Laboral Kutxa on March 5, 2015.[5] CSKA Moscow has managed to advance to the Euroleague Final Four for fourth straight season, after eliminating Panathinaikos for the second straight season in the quarter-final series with 3–1.[6] However, in the semifinal game, despite being dubbed by media as an absolute favorite to advance, once again lost to Olympiacos. The final score was 70–68, after great Olympiacos comeback in 4th quarter, led by Vassilis Spanoulis.[7] CSKA Moscow eventually won the third place after defeating Fenerbahçe with 86–80.[8] Over 10 Euroleague games played, he averaged career-low 1.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1 assist per game.

On July 23, 2015, he re-signed with CSKA for one more season.[9]

Russian national team

Khryapa has been a member of the senior men's Russian national basketball team, winning the gold medal at the FIBA EuroBasket 2007. He also participated in the 2002 FIBA World Championship, the FIBA EuroBaskets of 2003, 2005, and 2011, and the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympic Games, where Russia won the bronze medal. He was also included on the Russian national team roster for the 2010 FIBA World Championship, but did not play due to injury.
