Moses Wright makes 2023 NBA Summer League debut for the Toronto Raptors

Wright was a former star while at Georgia Tech

Four former Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are playing in this year's NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. 

Tonight, the Toronto Raptors were in action against the Chicago Bulls and former Georgia Tech star Moses Wright was in action for the Raptors tonight. 

During tonight's game, Wright was delegated to a backup role, playing only 12 minutes. He scored two points, had two rebounds, had two steals, and one block. 

Wright is still trying to find the right fit for him in the NBA after playing for the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Clippers briefly. He is getting an opportunity with the Raptors this summer and hoping to make the most of his opportunity.

Former Georgia Tech star Moses Wright is hoping to find his NBA home this season

While at Georgia Tech, Wright was part of a team that won the ACC Tournament title and made the NCAA Tournament. He won the 2021 ACC Player of the Year, was a first-team All-ACC member in 2021, and was on the All-ACC defensive team. Finished with 1,130 points (38th all-time at Tech) and 614 rebounds (Per Georgia Tech PR). 

There are going to be more opportunities for Wright during this year's summer league and hopefully, he can earn the minutes and a chance to compete for a roster spot. 

Other former Yellow Jackets that are participating in Summer League include Ja'von Franklin (Miami Heat), Michael Devoe (Portland Trail Blazers), and Jordan Usher (Phoenix Suns) are also playing. Devoe and the Blazers took on the Houston Rockets tonight in the highly anticipated debut of the No. 3 pick in this year's draft, Scoot Henderson.
