Wright supplied five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, and three assists in 20 minutes during Friday's victory in Chicago.

Analysis:

Wright earned just 10 minutes in Thursday's win at Atlanta, which doubled as LaMarcus Aldridge's return to the lineup after a seven-game absence due to a lower back contusion. The explanation perhaps comes down to Wright's poor shooting in the three contests prior to Friday's, during which he knocked down just 25 percent (5-for-20) of his shots. Nevertheless, he garnered work at both forward spots Friday, a staple of the Blazers' rotation that should remain intact for the rest of the season.
