Making a surprise return from injury, Ashley-Wright was still showing signs of rust but nonetheless provided a key spark off the bench that helped swing the game in Neumann’s favor. The Towson commit came into the game immediately in attack mode, using his slick handle and dynamic end-to-end speed to put constant pressure on the paint, particularly in transition. He was consistently able to draw contact and get to the line, which was particularly necessary with the Saints starved for offense through much of the first half. He’ll need to reign things in a bit looking toward the next level, but his change-of-pace attack was precisely what the Saints ordered on Wednesday to come away with the win.
