 His superior athleticism often allowed him to score baskets simply by virtue of his having beaten the defense down the court.A highlight of his freshman campaign may have been against the University of Texas in the Big 12 Tournament Championship game when he put an exclamation mark on KU's win with two magnificent breakaway slam dunks in the closing minutes of the game.During his freshman season, Wright averaged 8.5 points per game, but he was praised more for his ability to help his team without scoring.
