Killian Larson (born February 21, 1991) is an American professional basketball player for Saint-Chamond of the LNB Pro B. He competed at the collegiate level with the Grand Canyon Antelopes men's basketball team and finished his senior season averaging the most rebounds per game in all of NCAA Division I and was tied for third nationally with 21 double-doubles. Larson also attended Dominican University of California, where he played for the basketball team and achieved prolific status.
Larson attended Puyallup High School in Pierce County, Washington. While playing with the school's team, he was named South Puget Sound League (SPSL) Most Valuable Player in 2009, and was also named First Team All-Area. Upon the completion of his high school career, Larson was given a composite grade of two stars. He was offered a spot on the Dominican University basketball team roster, and finally enrolled with the program. Shortly before April 2009, Larson was invited to participate in the Northwest Shootout, an event featuring the top high school senior talent from Oregon and Washington.
Larson debuted with the Dominican men's basketball team and at the collegiate level with 10 points, a team-high 9 rebounds and 2 blocks, and 1 assist in an exhibition contest vs. Pacific Union College. Larson also helped the team finish with a 25-point victory. Following the game, head coach Bret Tovani commented on Larson's debut, "I really liked the way the young guys stepped up tonight to the level of [collegiate] play. We have a lot to look forward to. Now that this is behind us it's time to focus on our next challenge."
Larson made his first official appearance in a regular season game against San Francisco, a Division I program. He added 4 points, 2 rebounds, and 5 personal fouls. Larson was given a third straight start by Bret Tovani, along with several other incoming freshmen on the team.
