Oklahoma City ? Former Kansas University basketball forward Julian Wright scored three points and had eight rebounds in nine minutes on Tuesday in his pro basketball debut.
“Who was that?” Wright said, surprised at his rebounding total in the Hornets’ 94-92 preseason victory over Houston in Oklahoma City, their former home while New Orleans was being cleaned up after Hurricane Katrina.
Wright, the No. 13 pick overall, missed five of six shots in his debut.
Former KU center Eric Chenowith of the Hornets did not play in the game because of a heel injury.
