| Is playing some of his best-ever basketball as the SEC season begins.
Averaged 11.6 points, 6.0 assists and shot 60 percent from the field in the recently-completed 5-game homestand.
Credited with shutting down two highly-touted guards in the pre-SEC schedule: Gonzaga's Blake Stepp (4 pts., 0 threes) and Pitt's Brandin Knight (0 FGs until the final 5:10 of the game).
Had perhaps his best game of the young season Dec. 28, when he got a double-double with zero turnovers vs. Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Earlier this season he became the 11th player in UGA history to score 500 points and hand out 300 assists in his career. He's currently 11th in career assists.
Is about to pass former Olympian and NBA veteran Willie Anderson and move into the school's top 10 in career assists.
Amidst many reasons, Wright's development into the SEC's top point guard may explain Georgia's outstanding 2002 season better than any other.
The indispensible key to the smooth operation of Georgia's offense.
