Wright transfers to FSU from Baylor in women’s basketball

Former Baylor starting guard Imani Wright, who recently wrapped up her sophomore season with the Lady Bears, has transferred to the Florida State.

Wright will have two years of eligibility left starting in the 2016-17 year.

“We’re excited about Imani’s experience that she brings having played with and against top-level competition,” FSU coach Sue Semrau said.

“Her skill set really complements the players we have. Our student-athletes have shown a lot of development in their redshirt years and we’re excited about that same type of development that Imani will have.”

Wright is coming off a prolific season as she guided the Lady Bears to a 33-4 overall record, a Big 12 Tournament title and a spot in the NCAA Elite Eight. Wright earned All-Big 12 Honorable Mention honors after averaging 9.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists. She started 31 of the team’s 37 games.
