FSU Women’s Basketball: Looking Back at Imani Wright’s Career as a Seminole

What makes a basketball team successful is players understanding their role. Sometimes you don’t have to be the best player to be a star in your role. Players do what they do best on the floor and it plays a factor in the success of a ball club.

During her career at Florida State, Imani Wright was a sniper for the team. Her unconscious three-point shooting continued to lead the Seminoles to wins throughout her tenure. 

It’s safe to say that Wright was born to play the game of basketball. Her father, Larry Wright, played in the NBA for 12 seasons and won a championship as a member of the Washington Bullets. At a young age, Wright looked to carry on that legacy. That’s when she decided to pick up a basketball at eight years old and never look back. 

During the 2010s, basketball was evolving. Fans have witnessed the game become more perimeter-based as teams utilize the three-point shot to their advantage. It’s been a beauty to watch players unleash their range and become snipers from behind the arc. Three-point shooting was one of Wright’s strong suits and she used it as a weapon to torch the defense.
