Top Delon Wright News

  • Bucks' Delon Wright: Will join Milwaukee

    Wright and the Bucks agreed to a one-year, $3.3 million contract Monday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

    With this move, the Bucks have secured one of the top backup point guards on the open market. Wright will provide some relief minutes behind Damian Lillard, but the former is also capable of playing shooting guard as well. Wright's playmaking and defensive ability will boost Milwaukee's backcourt.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Able to return after stitches

    Wright went to the locker room in the first quarter of Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics after taking an elbow to the face. However, he'll be available to return after receiving stitches, the Heat announced.

    Wright was elbowed in the chin as Jaylen Brown went up for a shot and ended up going back to the locker room after the play. He'll have stitches put on the inside of his lower lip/chin and will then return to the contest. Patty Mills and Duncan Robinson should see more minutes while Wright is absent.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Starting Game 5

    Wright will enter the starting lineup for Wednesday's Game 5 against Boston, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Wright will enter the first unit in place of Jaime Jaquez (hip) for just his second start of the season. The guard has been a sizeable part of the rotation throughout the first-round series, averaging 8.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists across 25.0 minutes per game, and should see an even larger workload Wednesday.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Cleared to play Monday

    Wright (personal) is available for Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    As expected, Wright, who missed Miami's Game 3 loss for the birth of his daughter, has been upgraded from probable to available. In Game 1, Wright posted 17 points, three assists and two steals in 26 minutes off the bench, but he was a non-factor in Game 2.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Likely available Monday

    Wright (personal) is probable for Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics.

    Wright will likely be back to soak up some of Terry Rozier's (neck) missing minutes after being absent for Saturday's Game 3 loss due to personal reasons. In Game 1, Wright posted 17 points, three assists and two steals in 26 minutes.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Out Saturday

    Wright (personal) will not play in Saturday's Game 3 matchup with the Celtics, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.

    Wright came back to earth in Game 2 following a big performance in the first game of the series versus Boston. He will now be sidelined until at least Game 4. In his absence, Patty Mills and Duncan Robinson could see a slightly bigger workload.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Iffy for Game 3

    Wright is questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics due to personal reasons.

    Wright starred off the bench during the Game 1 loss and posted 17 points, three assists and two steals in 26 minutes. However, he finished the Game 2 win with just five points and four rebounds in 20 minutes. His potential loss could be costly to a backcourt already playing without Terry Rozier (neck) and Josh Richardson (shoulder). Jimmy Butler (knee) also remains out.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Shines off bench in Game 1 loss

    Wright recorded 17 points (6-7 FG, 5-5 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and two steals across 26 minutes during Sunday's 114-94 loss to the Celtics in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

    Wright led all bench players in scoring in Game 1, connecting on all five of his three-point attempts while chipping in a couple of steals on the defensive end. Keep an eye on the status of Terry Rozier (neck) ahead of Wednesday's Game 2, as his potential return could impact Wright's workload.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Makes defensive impact

    Wright totaled six points (2-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 105-104 Play-In Game loss to the 76ers.

    Wright has struggled to gain a consistent role in Miami's rotation since joining the team after the All-Star break, averaging 5.5 points, 2.6 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 20.5 minutes. The key to staying on the court for the 31-year-old has been his defensive impact; Wright has averaged 1.5 steals in 12 appearances since March, chipping in four steals twice in that span. Despite losing Jimmy Butler's (knee) defensive abilities, Wright should not be expected to see much of an increase in playing time buried behind Tyler Herro, as well as Terry Rozier (neck) and Duncan Robinson (back), if they are available for Friday.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Muted role continues

    Wright recorded zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists across 16 minutes during Tuesday's 113-92 loss to the Warriors.

    Wright was invisible in the loss, continuing to serve as nothing more than a depth piece despite the Heat dealing with a couple of injuries. The veteran is typically viewed as an elite defensive stream option, but even that is pushing it right now. He has accumulated four steals over the past seven games, ensuring he stays on the waiver wire in most fantasy formats.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Leads bench in assists

    Wright totaled one point (0-4 FG, 1-2 FT), four assists, two rebounds and one steal in 16 minutes during Monday's 98-91 loss to the 76ers.

    Since being bought out by the Wizards on Feb. 16, Wright has appeared in five games for Miami, averaging 4.4 points, 2.6 assists and 1.2 steals in 18.4 minutes. Despite a rough night from the field, the veteran still managed to lead the bench unit in assists. Expect the 31-year-old to receive playing time if Duncan Robinson (back) is forced to miss additional time on top of injuries to Tyler Herro (foot) and Josh Richardson (shoulder).

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Coming off bench

    Correcting a previous report, Wright will come off the bench for Thursday's game versus Denver.

    Miami submitted a lineup with Wright replacing Duncan Robinson, only to change it back a few minutes later.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Starting Thursday

    Wright will start Thursday's game versus Denver.

    Duncan Robinson will move to the bench with Wright getting the nod, as the Heat are opting for more defense at the expense of some floor spacing.

  • Heat's Delon Wright: Back to bench

    Wright will come off the bench for Tuesday's game versus Portland, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Wright filled in as the starting point guard Monday versus the Kings, producing 13 points, five assists, two rebounds, two steals, one block and two three-pointers. Terry Rozier (knee) is returning Tuesday, and Jimmy Butler is back from his suspension. But with Tyler Herro (knee) still out, Wright could have a sizable role with the second unit.
