Andrew wiggins

Sports Seriously, USA TODAY SAN FRANCISCO —Golden State’s Andrew Wiggins tried to steal a pass intended for Boston’s Jayson Tatum. He didn’t get the steal, but as Tatum launched a 3-pointer from the wing, Wiggins got a hand up to contest the shot then hustled to the paint where he grabbed the missed shot for a rebound. The sequence was emblematic of Wiggins’ Game 4 performance: 17 points, a career-high 16 rebounds, two assists, one steal and stellar defense in 43 minutes, 26 seconds as the Warriors outscored Boston by 20 points and Boston scored a measly 89.5 points per 100 possessions with Wiggins on the court. The Warriors needed every bit of “Wiggs was fantastic,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “To go against Boston, you've got to deal with (Jayson) Tatum and (Jaylen) Brown, and they are just powerful, skilled players. Great size. They are coming downhill at you constantly, so we had to have Wiggs out there. I thought he was great defensively. … “So we needed every bit of Wiggs contributions.” GAME 4: CURRY: The eight-year veteran was all over the court. He covered 2.95 miles, second to teammate Klay Thompson’s 2.97, according to NBA.com’s tracking data. In Game 3, Boston out-rebounded Golden State 47-31, including 15-6 in offensive rebounds, leading to a 22-11 edge in second-chance points. Among several areas that required improvement, rebounding was near the top of the list. In Game 4, the Warriors out-rebounded the Celtics 55-42, allowing just 11 offensive rebound a...

The Golden State Warriors are open for business this NBA offseason. With Draymond Green set to reach free agency if he declines his player option and Klay Thompson needing a contract extension soon, it’s expected. Nobody is safe. Well, besides Steph Curry of course. Otherwise, anyone on this roster could be a candidate to be traded.Even Green and Thompson have to be evaluated, but there will be plenty of other names that get brought up in trade buzz first. Some players will be on the block because they’ve underperformed. Jordan Poole just clued up a weak season. Meanwhile, Jonathan Kuminga may be too raw to contribute to a contender. On the other hand, a player could get traded for the specific reason that they’re valuable. For example, if the Warriors moved Andrew Wiggins, that would be the reason.He makes a lot of money and took a step back in this year’s playoffs compared to where he was a season ago.

Andrew Wiggins missed his 23rd straight game for the Warriors on Tuesday, but he appears to be getting closer to a return. The 28-year-old forward, who broke out last season en route to being named an All-Star starter, has not suited up for Golden State since Feb. 13. He has been listed on the Warriors' injury report as inactive due to a personal family matter. Following its home win against the Thunder on Tuesday, Golden State now sits at 42-38 ahead of the Clippers for fifth place — and, more importantly, out of the Play-In Tournament, just a half-game ahead of the Lakers. The Warriors are now 13-10 during Wiggins' 23-game absence. After playing a starring role in Golden State's run to the 2022 NBA title — Wiggins was arguably the team's second-best player behind Stephen Curry — the former No. 1 overall pick has had an up-and-down season. Prior to this extended absence, Wiggins had shuffled in and out of the lineup, missing 20 of the team's first 49 games to start the season. In addition to missing 15 games in December with an adductor strain, he's also missed time with a nagging foot injury and non-COVID illness. He's played well when available, averaging 17.1 points per game, playing lockdown defense and shooting a career-best 39.6 percent from beyond the arc. If the Warriors are going to make a serious run at defending their title, they'll surely need Wiggins. Here are the latest updates on Wiggins' ongoing absence.
