Andrew Wiggins entered the season out of shape, sources tell ESPN’s Kendra Andrews. Wiggins returned to the Warriors last season for the playoffs after missing two months over an undisclosed personal matter.
A team source also told ESPN that some within the Warriors were annoyed by his lack of physical conditioning.
Wiggins has started the season slow and ranks last in effective field goal percentage on jumpers among players with at least 75 attempts.
The Warriors and Wiggins signed a four-year extension worth $109 million before the 22-23 season as he was coming off an excellent playoff run leading to their 2022 championship.
