TEXAS A&M | JUNIOR | SHOOTING GUARD

Draft Projection: Late lottery

Similarities: Joe Johnson

Notes: Wright rebounded from a horrific sophomore season, averaging 17.8 ppg and 6.0 rpg on 44.7 percent from 3-point range for the Aggies. He looked like he was a lock for the lottery after an amazing freshman season for the Aggies. However, his numbers dropped across the board as he shot just 36 percent from the field and 29 percent from the 3-point arc as a soph.

Positives: Wright is a good athlete who (too often) has his game compared to Tracy McGrady's. Wright handles the rock great for a 6-foot-7 foot player, sees the floor well and just has an overall good feel for the game. He improved his perimeter shooting dramatically this season. In a recent workout in NY, he looked like he'd really added some definition to his body.

Negatives: Scouts still wonder about his head a bit after he fell apart last season. Is a poor free throw shooter for a guard, though he improved to 69 percent from the line this past season.

Summary: This year, Wright seems to have regained his shooting stroke and his confidence. He should fare very well in workouts. Scouts have him anywhere from the late lottery pick into the mid-first round.
