At 6-foot-9 and 235 pounds, Kijani Wright is projected to be the smallest starting 'big man' in the SEC for the 2024 season.
Last season, for USC, Wright had just 3.9 points and 2.6 assists per game when he came off the bench for the Trojans.
Despite his lower-than-average stats, Wright shot 58.4 percent from the field which elevates him to most likely become the starter for the Vanderbilt Commodores.
