Dorell Wright: Starting Wednesday

Wright will get the nod Wednesday against the Suns, The Oregonian reports.

Analysis:

Wright will receive the first opportunity to start for LaMarcus Aldridge (thumb), as he did in every one of Aldridge's 13 absences last season. While it isn't out of the realm of possibility for Wright to match his output from those outings -- 8.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.6 three-pointers, and 1.4 assists in 20 minutes per game -- Thomas Robinson and Meyers Leonard are also present to cover for a bruised and battered frontcourt.
