Kristen Denise McCarthy (born February 28, 1990 in La Puente, California) is an American professional basketball player for Snæfell.
McCarthy played basketball at Temple University from 2008 to 2012. She was a First Team All-Atlantic 10 Conference in 2010 and made the Second Team in 2011 and 2012. In total she scored 1604 points in 129 games for the school.
During the 2014–2015 season, McCarthy played for Snæfell in the Icelandic Úrvalsdeild where she helped the club win the Icelandic Super Cup and the Icelandic national championship. She finished second in the league in scoring, behind Lele Hardy, and was named both the Úrvalsdeild foreign player of the year and the playoffs MVP.
McCarthy's next stop was in Romania with BC ICIM Arad which played in the Liga Națională and the Central Europe Women's League. She was let out of her contract in December 2015 as the club was having financial difficulties and shortly later signed with SV Halle Lions of the Damen-Basketball-Bundesliga. After two seasons in Germany, McCarthy, a fan favorite at Snæfell, signed with the club again in July 2017.
