Matthew Andrew Christopher Wright (born February 7, 1991) is a Filipino-Canadian professional basketball player for Kyoto Hannaryz of the Japanese B.League.
He played college basketball at St. Bonaventure University.
He has since become an ABL champion, a two-time PBA All-Star, and a member of Gilas Pilipinas.
Wright was born on February 7, 1991, in Toronto to Chris Wright and Ofelia Wright (née Agustin).
He grew up there with his parents, grandmother, and some relatives.
The Filipino community in Toronto exposed him to basketball, which he started learning at 10 years old.
While attending Bloorlea Middle School, he was selected as their Athlete of the Year.
Wright played for the Scadding Court AAU basketball program in his teen years.
He also played at the Martingrove Collegiate Institute, leading them in scoring with 21 points a game.
He did consider committing to the La Salle Green Archers in the Philippines before his final year of high school, but decided to remain in Toronto so that he could be recruited by a Division 1 program.
In his senior year, he averaged 23 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 blocks per game.
He also led them to their second consecutive Toronto District School Board Triple-A championship.
Wright had offers from Maine, Duquesne, and Santa Clara University.
However, the NCAA questioned whether he had accepted money to play for the Philippines men's national under-18 team.
While he waited for the NCAA to clear him, other schools lost interest in him and he considered playing for the University of Toronto.
During this time, he made an unofficial campus visit to St. Bonaventure, who then helped him become eligible as the rumors of him accepting money were proven to be false.
He then committed to play for the St. Bonaventure Bonnies in 2010.
In Wright's first season, he started off poorly, shooting one-for-21 from three point range.
He bounced back by scoring 18 points against the George Washington Colonials and followed up that performance with 15 points in a win over Duquesne.
The team started relying on him more to provide off the bench scoring.
He finished his rookie season as his team's leader in three point shooting (.426), second in steals (.8), fourth in assists (1.6), and fifth in scoring (6.9).
In his sophomore season, Wright was promoted to the starting lineup after one of the senior guards got hurt.
During that season, he hit a game-winning three pointer from the corner off a pass from teammate Andrew Nicholson against the St. Joseph's Hawks.
Behind Nicholson, the Bonnies won the Atlantic 10 championship that year.
In college, Wright helped lead the St. Bonaventure Bonnies to an Atlantic 10 championship and into the 2012 NCAA tournament.
In his senior season, he led the team in scoring.
After college, Wright started his professional career in France.
He then went to play for the Westports Malaysia Dragons, with whom he won an ABL championship with.
He then spent six seasons with the Phoenix Fuel Masters before joining Kyoto Hannaryz in 2022.
They also made it to the 2012 NCAA tournament, where they lost to the Florida State Seminoles.
He finished the season as the team's leader in assists and steals while averaging 6.8 points and 2.5 rebounds.
In his junior season, Wright had 22 points on eight-of-eleven shooting including four-of-four behind the arc when the Bonnies beat the Temple Owls.
He followed that with an 18-point night in SBU's triumph over the Hawks.
He also struggled through a torn plantar fascia during this time.
Still, he was able to average 7.3 points per game and finished in the top 10 in three point shooting in the A10.
In his senior season, Wright had a college career-high 27 points on 10 of 14 shooting in a win against Canisius, which gave the Bonnies a 3–0 start to their season.
The Bonnies then started A10 play with him scoring 20 points in a win over the Richmond Spiders.
He then had 18 points against Fordham, then had 24 points against George Mason, which were both wins.
He also got a cut below his right eye that required two stitches after the game.
