On its next possession, the Crimson went right back in to Wright on the left block. But this time, the junior, double-teamed, kicked it out to sophomore Christian Webster and earned the assist on his teammate’s ensuing game-winning three.

“If I see a double, I’m kicking it out,” Wright said. “But I’m just playing hard, just doing what coach tells us to do.”

The junior finished with a career-high 24 points and 10 rebounds against Bryant, his second double-double on the year.

He added three blocks and was solely responsible for keeping the Crimson in the game early on, scoring the first five points of the contest.

“He’s done such a great job this year,” fellow captain Oliver McNally said. “Even games he hasn’t had as many points we build from inside-out. Keith opens up our offense so much.”

Wright’s strong pair of games earned him the Ivy League Player of the Week award, already his second on the young season. The center is second in points (17.2) and rebounds (8.8) in the conference and first in blocks-per-game (2.0) and field goal percentage (.733) thus far.

Capping his week with a home game in which scouts came to watch two of his opponents, Wright was the one who looked like the NBA prospect Sunday afternoon.

“Let’s not carried away,” Amaker said with a smile of Wright’s own draft prospects. “But certainly, Keith has played well, and I’m very pleased with his production.”
