Anthony Wright is the director of basketball operations for St. John's men's basketball in Queens, New York, joining the program in June 2026. He arrived after eight seasons at NC State, where he served as director of player personnel on Kevin Keatts' staff from 2017 to 2025. At NC State, his work included supporting student-athletes and coaches in areas such as community engagement, broader program operations, and connections between the team and the university.
During his time with the Wolfpack, NC State reached postseason play five times in seven chances, earned three NCAA Tournament appearances, and posted five 20-win seasons. Wright was also on staff for the 2023-24 team that won five games in five days to claim the ACC Tournament title with victories over Duke, Virginia, and North Carolina, then advanced to the program's first Final Four since 1983 after another win over Duke in the regional final.
