Wiggins has been a thorn in my side all season. We all know the potential of him, but he had a terrible year by all measurable standards. That's what we all say and believe, because we feel it. I sure do. But then I looked deeper at the seasons and here's what I'm seeing now.
Wiggins with the dubs..
-
2021 - Really strong season
-
2022 - Epic season. All star
-
2023 - Came back strong until....
-
2024 - Terrible first half, good second half
This is actually a really good record. He had a bad half a season and the season before he was out for family reasons for a couple of months (consider it like an injury).
I think he's gonna make a comeback. There's been talk of him working his butt off in off season. And suppose he does. He's back to reliable Wiggins 17 and our best POA defender who also grabs around 6 boards.
What are your thoughts on a $27M Wiggins from this perspective? Because we got Kuminga breathing down his neck for minutes and a MAX $40-50M contract.
