No action in Bahamas Wright (undisclosed) did not appear in Rhode Island's three-game series in the Bahamas in early-August, according to the school's official site.

Impact The Rams played in the Baha Mar Summer League this year in early-August, deploying 8-to-11 man rotations in matchups against the Bahamas, Calgary and Victoria. Box scores were released for each game, but Wright, a junior guard, did not appear in any of them. He missed the last four games of the 2023-24 season and eight of the last 11 overall due to a shoulder issue and other undisclosed injury. Prior to that, he was a modest contributor, appearing in each of URI's first 21 games and even making four starts. With no further exhibition games on the schedule as of now, the next chance to see Wright would be in the season opener Nov. 4 against Fairfield.
