Christian Wright - College Basketball News & Rumors

Enters transfer portal Wright entered the NCAA's transfer portal Monday, VerbalCommits.com reports.

Impact Across eight games the Beavers played from St. Valentine's Day 2024 to their last matchup of March, Wright was a healthy scratch thrice and averaged fewer than 10 minutes when used. Looking to erase the stigma of that span with his remaining season of collegiate eligibility, he has opened himself up for better opportunities while enrolled elsewhere.

Plays 16 minutes Wright had four points (4-4 FT) and one assist over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 63-57 loss to Arizona State.

Impact Before the loss, Wright sat out Oregon State's game Saturday versus California. He returned against Arizona State without any problem. Now that the 2022-23 Beavers are likely done playing basketball this season, Wright's focus will shift to their next campaign, when he will be a junior looking for a bigger role.

Impact Wright will make just his second start of the year with Glenn Taylor Jr. coming off the bench after missing the past two practices while battling an illness. Wright saw 23 minutes Feb. 2 versus Arizona State but is averaging just 11.8 minutes per game this season. He could see some extended run for the time being until Taylor Jr. returns back to full health.
