2022–23 Wright State Raiders Men's Basketball Team
The 2022–23 Wright State Raiders men's basketball team represented Wright State University in the 2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Raiders, led by seventh-year head coach Scott Nagy, played their home games at the Nutter Center in Dayton, Ohio as members of the Horizon League. Season summary For Wright State, 2022–23 began under the shadow of having lost its two leading scorers not to graduation or injury, but to the new open transfer rules.

Veteran CJ Wilbourn was also unavailable much of the season due to injury. It was a frustratingly mediocre season. After winning 20 or more games for the last six non-shortened seasons, they finished 10–10 in the Horizon League and only 18–15 overall. The losses and many of the victories were marked by turnovers and defensive breakdowns. L ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
