Dorell Wright missed both his shots and failed to score in 27 minutes on Wednesday. Wright has lost his confidence and could be ready to lose his starting job to Brandon Rush. However, Rush was also scoreless and played just 17 minutes last night. Both players should still be owned in almost all leagues until we see how this plays out. But Rush's lack of run tonight is now a glaring concern, so see what he does against the Lakers on Friday.

Dorell Wright missed all four of his shots and finished without a point, four rebounds and four assists in 26 minutes in Monday's loss to the Suns. Wright's season is off to a disastrous start and he's clearly the No. 1 bust in fantasy thus far. Add in the fact that Brandon Rush is playing well and Klay Thompson (6 points, 2 threes) needs minutes, and Wright could find himself coming off the bench at some point. We're not big fans of dropping a player you took in Round 5, but if there's a hot free agent on your wire, Wright might be the guy you give the boot to. Think carefully before making such a move, but he hasn't shown any signs of breaking out of the funk anytime soon.

Dorell Wright is shooting 34.3% from the field this season, and just 17.6% from downtown. Wright's role in the Warriors' offense is not encouraging, as he can usually be found lurking outside the 3-point line buried in a far corner of the court. He's attempting just 8.8 shots per game this season, down from 14.0 per game last year, and continues to be one of the bigger early-season fantasy busts.

Dorell Wright hit just 2-of-10 shots for four points, five rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes on Saturday. He's just lingering around the 3-point line and not being aggressive, which is affecting his game. He looks like a fantasy bust at this point, but the minutes are there, along with the skill. Target him as a buy-low player and look for him to get it going in the near future. He's simply a better fantasy player than he's been thus far.

Dorell Wright, who exploded last season and averaged 16 points and 2.4 threes, had just eight points, eight rebounds, a steal, a block and a 3-pointer on Wednesday. He's hit a three in every game so far, but has scored eight points in two of them, hitting 10-of-25 shots thus far. We thought he'd have a big night with Steph Curry out, but it wasn't meant to be. We're still assuming he'll start scoring 15 a game with a couple threes, as that's what his owners were expecting when they drafted him.

Dorell Wright hit 6-of-10 shots for 13 points, three rebounds and a 3-pointer on Monday after really struggling on Sunday (1-of-6 shooting). Wright still isn't grooving like we'd like him to be, but he played 34 minutes and simply has to get better. Be patient with him.

Dorell Wright hit just 1-of-6 shots (a 3-pointer) for eight points and nine rebounds in 31 minutes on Sunday. Normally we wouldn't be too worried, but Wright is coming off a monster season and could be setting up for a letdown this year. Brandon Rush and Klay Thompson combined for 47 minutes tonight, and Wright never got in a groove. It's too early to panic, but owners may want to lower expectations for now.

Dorell Wright hit just 3-of-9 shots and one 3-pointer Tuesday, finishing with eight points, three boards, one assist and three steals in the win. He's off to a slow start but should get it going once the season starts. He's worth a look beginning in Round 5 in fantasy drafts.

Dorell Wright is not interested in going overseas to play basketball. Wright said that he's participating in a variety of charity games in order to test his skills, stay in shape and remain sharp. He showed a great improvement in his game during his first season with the Warriors.

Dorell Wright spent a lot of time during Warriors unofficial workouts handling the ball and setting up teammates, according to Friday's CSN Bay Area's Warriors report. Team insider Matt Steinmetz writes, "It seems as though Wright's game continues to evolve and he's no longer simply a spot-up shooter." One of the steals of last year's drafts has plenty of upside again this season, and even though Klay Thompson threatens to steal some minutes at the wing, Wright is tentatively targeted for the late 'early rounds' of drafts given the Warriors' current roster.
