The Golden State Warriors have re-assigned rookie forward Chris Wright to the Dakota Wizards, the Warriors’ NBA D-League affiliate. 

Wright returns to the Wizards, having appeared in nine games for the team during his previous two assignments, averaging 18.2 points, 8.0 rebounds 1.3 blocks and 29.0 minutes

The Golden State Warriors could move the Dakota Wizards to Santa Cruz.

The Wizards are a D-League team owned and operated by the Warriors.

Next week Santa Cruz city leaders will decide if they want to spend $2.5 million to bring the team to the city.

"This would not have any impact on the ability of the city to continue to provide the services its currently providing," said Martin Bernal, city manager.

City council members are thinking about turning a lot on Front and Spruce Streets owned by Seaside Company into a 35,000 square foot arena and fit up to 5,000 people.

The Dakota Wizards announced that Chris Wright has been recalled by the Golden State Warriors.

Wright appeared in six games with the Wizards, averaging 17.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.8 blocks in 27.8 minutes per game. He was originally assigned to the Wizards on March 24 and helped lead Dakota to a 5-1 record, winning their last five games to secure a spot in the NBA D-League playoffs.
