Family members are searching for former Memphis Tiger and NBA Grizzlies player Lorenzen Wright. FOX13′s Marcus Hunter spoke with Wright’s mother, Debra about the last time he was seen by family members.

Debra said his last known where abouts was at his ex-wife’s house in Collierville, Tenn. He was last seen wearing white gym shorts and gym shoes.

She said the family is concerned because he is not answering a cell phone to his daughter. Family members said he always returns her phone calls.

Mark Heuberger with the town of Collierville has confirmed Wright’s family filed a missing person report on Lorenzen Thursday.

FOX 13 can also confirm that Wright was last seen in Memphis on Monday.

Heuberger says the family hasn’t heard from him since Sunday.

Heuberger said the 34-year-old Wright could be traveling, but, in his words, “we don’t know.”

Wright played center for five NBA teams, including the Grizzlies, after being the No. 7 overall selection by the Los Angeles Clippers in 1996.

A Memphis native, Wright averaged 7.9 points per game over 13 NBA seasons.
