Moses Wright talks about his “comeback game” with Olympiacos in his strongest performance this season so far and how he rediscovered religion during his absence

Olympiacos Piraeus big man Moses Wright had his best performance this season with 18 points, six rebounds, three assists and two blocks in the win over Maccabi Tel Aviv that clinched first place for the Reds.

It was quite the comeback game for Wright who was out for several months due to a serious undisclosed health issue. The initial estimations were that the American player would miss the season but he returned to action, ready to help in the upcoming playoffs.

“That was a good game for me,” Wright told Eurohoops’ Antonis Stroggylakis. “Got a little frustrated with me on the court, but it’s all about for the game.”

While he was sidelined, Wright spent a lot of time attending basketball games in Athens. His bond with religion was also reinforced.

“You learn a lot from watching basketball,” Wright said. “I was just traveling all over Athens. Going to Maroussi, AEK, Peristeri games. Supporting my friends and watching basketball. I started reading my Bible more. Started praying more. Getting really into Christianity. Getting back into Christianity.”
