Wright Named To Bob Cousy Award Watch List

BOULDER – University of Colorado junior McKinley Wright IV has been named one of 20 official Watch List candidates for the 2021 Bob Cousy Point Guard of the Year Award, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced Monday.

Wright was one of 10 finalists for the 2020 Cousy Award.

A two-time All-Pac-12 Conference First Team selection, Wright enters his senior year with 501 assists, just 61 away from catching Jay Humprhies' school record of 562 from 1980-84. He is just the second player in team history with 1,000 points, 400 assists and 400 rebounds, joining Donnie Boyce (1991-95) in those categories.
