ESPN writer Tim MacMahon has a segment on the Brian Windhorst & The Hoop Collective podcast called the “Cojones Factor Player of the Week.” If he was watching Dubai Basketball’s Round 15 clash against FC Bayern Munich, the choice for that accolade would’ve been easy: Dubai guard McKinley Wright.

McKinley Wright to the rescue as Dubai defeats Bayern, stays perfect at Coca-Cola Arena

ESPN writer Tim MacMahon has a segment on the *Brian Windhorst & The Hoop Collective* podcast called the “Cojones Factor Player of the Week.” If he was watching [Dubai Basketball](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/teams/dubai-basketball/dub/)’s Round 15 clash against [FC Bayern Munich](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/teams/fc-bayern-munich/mun/), the choice for that accolade would’ve been easy: Dubai guard [McKinley Wright](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/mckinley-wright-iv/012606/).

The hosts trailed 87–88 with 3.2 seconds remaining and had an inbounds play after [Kosta Kondic](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/kosta-kondic/014031/) forced a turnover on [Stefan Jovic](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/stefan-jovic/004863/) as Bayern tried to run out the clock. [Justin Anderson](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/justin-anderson/012795/) inbounded to Wright, who took one step to his right and shot over the outstretched arms of [Spencer Dinwiddie](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/spencer-dinwiddie/014162/) and [Wenyen Gabriel](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/wenyen-gabriel/013383/) to lift Dubai to a perfect 5–0 at Coca-Cola Arena.

There were still 0.2 seconds left for Bayern to get a shot off, but [Vladimir Lucic](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/vladimir-lucic/001288/)’s attempt was blocked by Anderson – his third rejection of the night. After the game, the Dubai players celebrated on the floor with GM Dejan Kamenjasevic, the architect behind this Dubai team.

Kamenjasevic knows better than anyone that Dubai still has several more levels it can reach once its injured players return. Coach Jurica Golemac was missing seven players: [Dzanan Musa](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/dzanan-musa/006540/), [Aleksa Avramovic](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/aleksa-avramovic/003983/), [Dwayne Bacon](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/dwayne-bacon/011286/), [Klemen Prepelic](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/klemen-prepelic/002661/), and [Boogie Ellis](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/boogie-ellis/014157/), along with long-term absentees [Mam Jaiteh](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/mam-jaiteh/002581/) and [Nate Mason](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/nate-mason/014035/). Yet one player who has begun to emerge as a EuroLeague star is Wright.

The 2024–25 ABA League MVP joined Dubai from BKT EuroCup side Buducnost VOLI Podgorica this past summer and needed a little time to adjust to the EuroLeague level. But since Round 10, he has been one of the UAE-based team’s most reliable performers. Able to score and facilitate at an elite level, Wright finished with 22 points, 7 assists, and a 28 PIR in the win over Bayern – the game leader in all three categories.

This has become the norm for Wright. He has posted a PIR of 12 or more in six straight games, recorded 6 or more assists in six of his last seven, and scored in double figures in three consecutive outings. With the season approaching the midway point, Wright appears to have found his groove.

Against Bayern, he was backed by the never-say-die attitudes of Anderson and Kondic, both of whom played key roles in Dubai’s comeback. Anderson, in particular, has become a leader for this Dubai team, something Wright acknowledged after the game.

“Great comeback, man,” Wright told EuroLeague TV. “We were in this situation when we played at home against Paris – down double digits with 15 minutes left. Justin Anderson is a veteran on this team, and he does a great job of keeping our spirits high, making sure we’re motivated and can come back and win any game. I’ve got to give a lot of credit to Justin for making sure we stay alert.”

The Dubai fans at Coca-Cola Arena have only ever seen their team win, with the club’s only “home” defeat coming against Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv, a game played in Bosnia and Herzegovina following guidance from local authorities. Wright hopes the team’s strong home form will bring more fans out to support them.

“We need more fans to start coming out,” he said. “Y’all seeing this is a real thing. We’re winning games. It’s going to be special for the future.”

If Dubai fans – or any local residents – needed a reason to come watch the team at Coca-Cola Arena, Wright is giving them plenty.

Vitto Brown knew the question was coming. The Besiktas GAIN Istanbul forward has been thinking about it all season. And he assures that a change is in the works. 

Vitto Brown knows Besiktas counts on his shooting 

[Vitto Brown](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/eurocup/players/vitto-brown/013365/) knew the question was coming. The [Besiktas GAIN Istanbul](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/eurocup/teams/besiktas-gain-istanbul/bes/) forward has been thinking about it all season. And he assures that a change is in the works. 

Brown knows his three-point shooting this season has been down. His 35.7% coming into [Besiktas’s latest BKT EuroCup game against Lietkabelis Panevezys](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/eurocup/news/besiktas-shows-late-game-poise-takes-ot-thriller-over-lietkabelis/) may be okay for other players, but not for him. 

“It honestly makes me sick thinking about it right now. So we don’t even need to talk about this season. We know what I can do,” Brown told David Hein. 

The 30-year-old talked to the EuroCup website just days before the Lietkabelis game, and he already showed what he is all about, hitting 3-of-5 three-pointers for 13 points to go with 6 rebounds, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. 

The top plays of Besiktas GAIN Istanbul forward Vitto Brown through the first 10 rounds of the 2025-26 BKT EuroCup season.

Vitto Brown's top plays this season

To give a further aspect of how he had been struggling, take away his 3-of-4 three-point shooting night in Round 2 against the London Lions and Brown’s three-point accuracy in the other EuroCup games falls to 7 of 24 for 29.2%. And that was on his mind.

"Because that’s what you’re paid to do. Anybody can throw the ball up there. You’ve got to take accountability. If this is your job and people are counting on you, you’ve got to deliver,” he said.

“Every pro goes through slow times or slumps. There are adjustments – new team, new system, new teammates – and you can’t put too much pressure on yourself, which is hard at this level because you want to be the best for yourself and your team. But I’m working to correct it every time I step on the floor.”

Brown has been a rock of high-level shooting consistency thus far in his career. He made 40.0% on three-pointers in his rookie season at Le Mans in France and followed that with 38.3% in Spain in 2021-22 with Real Betis Sevilla in Spain. In 2022-23 at Pinar Karsiyaka, Brown made 44.5% in the Turkish League but 31.3% in the Basketball Champions League. Those numbers were 44.3% in Turkiye and 48.7% in the BCL in 2023-24 with Karsiyaka. 

Last season with EuroLeague side AS Monaco, he nailed 50.0% from long range in the French League but struggled with his confidence and consistency in the EuroLeague, making just 28.6% on threes. 

“I work on my shot every day. Thousands and thousands of reps. So when I hear those numbers, it doesn’t surprise me. I just need to get back to them, and I will,” he said.

Brown’s return to France last season did not go as he had hoped. He was getting solid minutes from the beginning of the season until early January, averaging 17 minutes in the EuroLeague and 20 minutes in the French League. His numbers then started dipping and he suffered a knee injury in early February that would end up costing him nearly two months. 

By the time he returned to full health, the playoffs were nearing and Brown played just 8 minutes in one playoff game against FC Barcelona, while he did get more run in the French League. 

“It’s the most frustrating thing. You work for years to get to that level. You were brought there because of what you did the two years before. Now it’s your time to show. To not be able to fully show that for various reasons was tough,” Brown remembered. “Some things were out of your control. It taught me a lot. Life isn’t always fair. Basketball isn’t always fair. The real pros continue to work despite that adversity. I think I really grew from that year.”

When the topic of the 2025-26 came up, Brown received a call from current Besiktas head coach Dusan Alimpijevic. 

“I knew him from when we (Karsiyaka) beat them in the (2022-23) playoffs when he was at Bursaspor. I knew his quality,” Brown said. “I had different options, some other EuroLeague options for less money and less opportunity. I felt like this was the right fit. 

“He told me about the roster they were building and it felt right. I wanted to stay in Europe. They still have goals to reach the next EuroLeague level, and we have a roster that might be capable of doing it.”

Brown chose Besiktas knowing he would be needed to be an outside threat from the four-man spot. And both he and the team hope the game against Lietkabelis is a sign of things to come.
