Conclusion

I was at the same game McDonough was, and came away incredibly impressed with how effortlessly Wright dominated every facet of the game.

There was a sequence against ASU when the Sun Devils hit a jumper to top off a big run, igniting a record-setting crowd. Just as the Sun Devils seemed to grab all the momentum, Wright-went-coast to coast through two defenders and drew a foul. On the surface it was a relatively benign play, but it’s rare for a college player to be able to sense that a game might be turning and even rarer that a player can stop it.

From there, Utah went on a run of their own. Wright, who had been struggling up t that point, went to the line five more times and finished with a ridiculos 24-12-6 line in an easy win.

It’s not incredibly likely the Suns take Wright at No. 13, but from everything I’ve seen it wouldn’t be a reach by any means.
