Olimpia Milano: Center Moses Wright tells Coach Peppe Poeta, “I feel like a guard.”

Moses Wright was, without a doubt, Armani Olimpia Milano’s most prestigious signing of the summer. A center of exceptional quality, he has everything it takes to make a big impact in the red-and-white jersey. His hunger for success is immense.

“I’d like to make the EuroLeague playoffs because ever since I’ve been here (in Europe—ed.), I’ve never missed them, and I don’t intend to start now. Then we’ll build on that result,” the new red-and-white big man told the club’s official website.

The former Zalgiris Kaunas player also assured coach Peppe Poeta of his “versatility” on the court: “As a player, I always say I consider myself a guard—which sounds kind of funny—but I truly see myself as a dangerous player, especially in pick-and-pop situations. That’s not what the NBA traditionally looks for in a center—someone who plays with his back to the basket—but that’s who I am.”

“I’ve worked hard, trained diligently, and put in extra hours of practice to get where I am today,” he added. In short, Moses Wright is ready to do whatever it takes to help Armani Olimpia Milano—his new home—soar.
