The 6-foot-8, 205-pound senior forward had led the Cadets to a 15-5 record and a berth in the Class A Federation Championships at the time of his selection. Wright averaged 16.7 points, 9.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.9 blocks through 20 games. The Class A Player of the Year, he was also MVP of the Federation Championships as a junior.
Wright has maintained a B average in the classroom. He remains undecided upon a collegiate destination.
Wright has served as a mentor and peer tutor, and has volunteered locally on behalf of youth basketball camps. "Hameir Wright is an exceptional basketball player," said Mark Fruscio, head coach at Lansingburgh High. "He does so many things well on the court. He can rebound, shoot and handle the ball, making him a match-up nightmare. What is most impressive is that the game comes so easily to him that it's almost like he's doing everything while exerting very little effort."
