Wright Commits to Manhattan

Joel Wright (6'6, 205 lb. small forward out of CJEOTO Academy in NJ. by way of Brooklyn, NY.) is originally from Kingston Jamaica and has given a verbal commitment to Manhattan for the 2010-11 season. Wright is extremely quick off the dribble and likes to slash to the basket but can also pop outside and knock down shots. He also has the ability to finish around the basket, often doing so in spectacular ways -- he loves to finish above the rim. Wright also considered Rutgers, Seton Hall, St. John's and Baylor during the recruitment process.
