Heat Re-Sign Wright

POSTED: 3:44 pm MDT August 21, 2008

(Sports Network) - The Miami Heat re-signed guard/forward Dorell Wright to an undisclosed contract Thursday.

Wright, who originally signed with the Heat after being drafted in the first round in the 2004 NBA Draft, has appeared in 133 games during his four-year NBA career, averaging 6.1 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game.

During the 2007-08 season, Wright appeared in 44 games (34 starts) and set career-highs by averaging 7.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and just under one block per game.

Wright also became the first player in Miami franchise history to be perfect shooting from both the field and the free throw line with at least five attempts in each category after he shot 5-for-5 from the field and 7-for-7 from the foul line versus Toronto on February 4, 2008.
