There has been a lot of speculation about him, and some reports even stated that he will be out for the season.

It is clear that Andrew Wiggins is dealing with something that is extremely serious, and we should give him space to deal with this personal matter in whatever way he sees fit. Wiggins has had a reputation as an extremely durable and available player in the past, so he wouldn’t be missing this much time if it wasn’t for something important.

This season, Andrew Wiggins has averaged 17.1 PPG, 5.0 RPG, and 2.3 APG for the Warriors, and there’s no doubt that his two-way play has been missed by the team. Hopefully, we see the star come back before the end of the season, but obviously, this issue takes precedence over basketball.

But life is bigger than basketball. Whatever him and his family going through, that’s all that matters. Whenever he’s ready to come back, I’m sure he will. That’s how he’s built in terms of being available.”
