Wiggins’ family troubles strike again.
Andrew Wiggins announced on his official website on Saturday that he has canceled his upcoming tour of China. The reason for the cancellation was that Wiggins is currently going through a difficult time with his family.
This is not the first time 사설 토토사이트 Wiggins has canceled an official tour due to personal family issues.
Wiggins left the team midway through the 2022-2023 season for personal reasons. Wiggins’ team, the Golden State Warriors, said in an official statement that Wiggins had left the team for personal reasons and that he would be back on the court soon. However, Wiggins was gone for nearly 50 days, leaving Golden State’s roster with a leaky power source that took its toll.
Wiggins’ personal reasons continued into the 2023-2024 season. In February 2024, he left the team again for personal reasons. This time, however, he returned to the team after about 10 days.
The reason that Golden State reporters and media speculated was the health of Wiggins”s father. The speculation is that Wiggins left the team because his father”s health was deteriorating. Of course, neither Golden State nor Wiggins have officially stated the reason for the departure, so we’re left to speculate.
That’s exactly what happened this offseason. Of course, since it happened in the offseason, it doesn”t hurt Golden State at all. However, it’s unnerving for the Warriors because it’s a family issue that’s come up again.
Wiggins had a down season in 2023-2024, but he is still one of Golden State”s main resources. As a 3-and-D forward, Wiggins is a key part of Golden State’s defense alongside Draymond Green. While Green directs his teammates and plays all-around defense, Wiggins defends the opposing ace forward one-on-one.
On offense, he can take advantage of opportunities created by Steph Curry and Green and convert them into three-pointers, while also using his great physicality to attack one-on-one. He was a huge part of Golden State’s NBA championship run in the 2021-2022 season.
Jonathan Cuminga is a rising star who has filled the void left by Wiggins, but he’ll never be able to replace Wiggins at his best. Wiggins, a 3-and-D type of forward, is a better fit for Golden State’s unselfish and complex system than Kuminga, a forward who specializes in one-on-one offense.
But if he can’t play, he’s a lost cause. It’s especially frustrating because it’s not an injury. Wiggins’ absence is an indefinite absence, with no timetable. That said, we can”t really criticize Wiggins. If the family issue is true, there”s no way around it.
If this happens again next season, the Warriors could look to trade Wiggins. In fact, it has often been reported that the Warriors are looking to trade Wiggins. However, there have also been reports that the Warriors are reluctant to trade Wiggins because his struggles have lowered his trade value.
Will Wiggins be able to play 70+ games for Golden State next season, or will he leave the team midway through next season due to family issues?
