Wright had 13 points (6-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt), 10 rebounds, eight assists, four steals and four blocks across 37 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old will enter the lineup Tuesday and was likely to have an increased workload with Tyrese Haliburton sidelined, though no one would have expected him to look as dominant as he did. Wright recorded his third double-double of the season and ended just two assists away from a triple-double, while also recording a season-high mark in blocks. Expect Wright to remain in the starting five for Wednesday's game at Indiana.

Wright will start Tuesday's game at Oklahoma City, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old will enter the lineup Tuesday and likely will have an increased workload with Tyrese Haliburton sidelined. Wright has averaged 9.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals in 26.6 minutes over the past five games, but he should see more production as a starter.

Wright closed with 14 points (7-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five assists, two rebounds and two steals in 31 minutes during Sunday's 111-99 victory over the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
Wright came through with another serviceable performance during the victory. Although perhaps the biggest takeaway here is the injury suffered by Tyrese Haliburton (knee). While there has been no word on the severity, there is certainly a chance Haliburton is shut down for the remainder of the regular season. If that is the case, Wright could find himself in a favorable position down the stretch, and based on past history, he could be a difference-maker across a host of fantasy leagues. Make sure he isn't available in your league.

Wright finished Friday's 110-16 win over the Lakers with 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), seven assists, six rebounds, a steal and a blocked shot across 27 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Wright did a little bit of everything to help Sacramento pull off the upset over the defending champs. He came into the contest having made only one three-pointer in five attempts over his past four games but found the bottom of the net three times against Los Angeles en route to his first double-digit scoring effort since April 20. Wright has been dramatically inconsistent since joining Sacramento, so he isn't a target for managers still alive in fantasy playoffs despite his solid all-around effort Friday.

Wright closed with seven points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Sunday's 117-113 loss to Golden State.
EDGE Analysis
Wright was far from dominant on the offensive end of the floor but there were still plenty of positives to take out of the game. The playing time is certainly encouraging, and if he can nudge 30 minutes a night while De'Aaron Fox (COVID-19 protocols) is on the sideline, Wright absolutely moves into the standard league conversation. At this stage of the season, assists and steals could be crucial to fantasy success and so making a play for Wright is definitely on the cards.

Wright scored 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt) while adding five assists, three rebounds, two steals and a block in 27 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's loss to the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
It was another productive performance for the 28-year-old, who's scored in double digits in four of the last five games while averaging 11.0 points, 2.6 boards, 2.6 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.6 threes over that stretch. If De'Aaron Fox is forced to miss any action due to the ankle injury he picked up Tuesday, Wright would likely see a larger role, although it's not clear whether he or Tyrese Haliburton would move into the starting five in the event of a Fox absence.

Wright turned in 16 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and a steal across 28 minutes in Thursday's 122-114 loss to the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Wright logged his highest minute total as a King in Thursday's loss. Sacramento's crowded depth chart has made it difficult for Wright to carve out more than a backup role, but if he continues to play well, he could see a slight uptick in playing time as coach Luke Walton searches for a spark to snap the team's losing streak.

Wright scored 12 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT) to go along with four steals and one rebound across 23 minutes in Monday's loss to the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Wright benefited from the absence of Buddy Hield (illness) and returned to a 20-minute role once again. He shot fairly efficiently, but the highlight was his defensive work as he racked up four steals. Assuming Hield isn't sidelined for an extended amount of time, Wright will likely find it harder to earn minutes with both Hield and Tyrese Haliburton available.

Wright tallied 16 points (5-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals in 22 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old had his most productive game since being traded to the Kings, scoring 16 points in 22 minutes. Before Wednesday's game, Wright was averaging just 3.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.5 steals in 22.8 minutes in his first two games as a King. The sixth-year guard will look to build on his impressive performance Friday at home against the Lakers.

Wright amassed just two points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists, four rebounds and one steal in 23 minutes during Monday's 132-115 victory over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Wright was disappointing in his second game for the Kings, continuing what has been a rough start to his career in Sacramento. While the playing time has been decent enough, he has yet to find his rhythm on the offensive end, and the peripheral numbers, while adequate, aren't enough to keep his fantasy value afloat.
