Moses Wright has had an atypical route to being an NBA draft prospect. Coming out of Enloe High School in Raleigh, North Carolina in 2017, he was rated a two-star or even unranked across various services and his only major conference offer came from Georgia Tech very late in the recruitment game. Wright was part of new coach Josh Pastner’s first full recruiting cycle upon becoming the head coach in 2016 on the flats.
Not many expected him to blossom into the force he has become in four short years. His rapid development on the court and in the training facilities helped Georgia Tech earn their first tournament bid since 2009-10 and their first ACC Championship since 1993.
