In today's Golden State Warriors' 123-116 win over the Utah Jazz, Warriors small forward Andrew Wiggins started for 38 minutes and shot 9-of-19, including 4-of-6 from three-point range, with 25 points, 4 assists and 2 steals.
As the team's starting small forward, Wiggins's performance this season, although not much explosive, has also been a steady output. So far this season, he has played in 31 games for the Warriors, averaging 19.0 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. Shooting percentage can reach 48.7%. With a three-point shooting percentage of 43.4 percent, it ranks ninth in the league.
And his performance has also made him one of the popular players in this season's All-Star Game, and the core of the team, Stephen Curry, said bluntly in today's post-game interview: Wiggins can now use his performance to now be on the 2022 All-Star Game.
He himself was very indifferent when he talked about his recent call for an All-Star selection. He said: He just will continue to do his duty, and as for the All-Star, if he is selected, it is selected.
So far this season, the Warriors are top of the league with 28 wins and 7 losses, with such a good record on the team. Coupled with the fact that Wiggins' performance has been consistent and efficient, then he has a high probability of being selected for this year's All-Star Game.
Wiggins was the winner of the 2014 draft, and his physical talent is visible to the naked eye. Although his statistics in the seasons after entering the league were not too anti-heavenly, his attendance was very high. The Timberwolves had three full seasons in the first four seasons, and they only missed one game in total, which is a model worker in the league.
