Wright Nearing Return For Saints

Even after dropping a tough game on the road at Marist on Sunday, the Siena Saints men's basketball team is about to get some good news.

It appears that star guard Marquis Wright is on his way back after having missed the last two months with a stress fracture in his foot.

So we know that Wright will return to full practice tomorrow, but how about his return to game action?

This would put Wright in line to return for the end of the conference regular season and before the MAAC tournament.

As I said all along, if the Saints could tread water in Wright's absence, they put themselves in a position to contend for a MAAC title. Getting Wright back before the tournament is an unbelievable addition to the Saints rotation.

Wright is averaging 17.3 points per game through 12 games this season. He is also averaging nearly five rebounds and five assists.
