The Warriors purchased the Dakota Wizards this summer with the intent of utilizing this one-on-one relationship to develop future talent - this afternoon they took the first true step towards doing that. Golden State announced this afternoon that they are assigning rookie forward Chris Wright to Bismarck. Wright was undrafted by the NBA following a standout career at Dayton, but was the third overall pick in the D-League draft this fall by the Maine Red Claws. He was called up to Warriors training camp in December before making the opening night roster.
His minutes in the NBA have been limited, as Wright appeared in just five games, totaling 16 minutes, five points and four rebounds. During his four games in the D-League however, the hyper athletic forward averaged 17 points and nearly 11 rebounds. Wright is expected to be in uniform for the Wizards next game Saturday night, when they host the Iowa Energy.
