"Robert Vaihola was a bigger loss to the 2024 Spartans than Omari Moore"

From Anthony Chiang's article which included the following on former City College of San Francisco talent Delon Wright who was just picked up by the Miami Heat:

"...Wright, 31, averaged 4.1 points, 1.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game while shooting 39.3 percent from the field and 36.8 percent from three-point range in 33 appearances for the Wizards this season. He was used by Washington in a bench role, averaging 13.8 minutes per game.

Like most of the Heat’s guards, Wright (6-5 and 185 pounds) brings versatility to the position as a player who can be used on and off the ball. He has totaled 82 assists to just 11 turnovers this season.

Wright is not a high-volume three-point shooter, averaging just 1.2 three-point attempts per game in his limited playing time this season. He has never averaged more than 2.7 three-point attempts per game in a season during his NBA career.

Most of Wright’s shots this season have come from inside the paint, as 56.6 percent of his shot attempts have come from that area of the court. But he has shot an inefficient 43.5 percent from inside the paint this season.

Wright’s best work comes on the defensive end behind his knack for forcing turnovers, averaging a career-high 2.8 steals per 36 minutes this season. Among those who have played in at least 20 games this season, Wright has averaged the sixth-most deflections per 36 minutes this season at 4.6..."

Wright went on to play at the University of Utah and was selected with the 20th pick in the first round of the NBA draft.
