27 years old, which is the peak age of a superstar. Superstars in this age group are basically starting to go absolutely uphill, and their skills, talents, and athleticism are at an excellent level. At this age, Kobe Bryant is unstoppable, James is at the peak of his career, and Durant is gradually opening up his projection ability. And 27 years old for Wiggins, and when he entered the league at the age of 19, there is basically no big difference, how to enter the first season of the league is still how it is now, of course, the only change may be the hairstyle, the "explosive head" mouth brother slowly can not see.
For brother Zui, the current career is to eat two contracts. The first is a rookie contract, which is understandable, as a champion, his rookie contract is considerable. Then there is the Timberwolves in 17 years when 5 years 148 million to renew the mouth brother, from that time to the Timberwolves opened such a big contract is a very face to the mouth brother, after all, the average annual salary is almost 30 million. This contract will expire after playing next season, and after the end of this season, Brother Zui also ushered in a small contract year in advance, and can be renewed with the team in advance.
So the question is, how much will 27-year-old Wiggins expect? To tell the truth about the mouth brother at this age, the playing style is basically fixed, want to change again, in fact, it is already unlikely, unless the mouth brother like a small card to learn a small skill a year, a small improvement in a year, otherwise the real strength of the mouth brother is the average of 20 points per game, 4-5 rebounds, 2-3 assists, and then the shooting rate of about 48%, three-point shooting rate of about 40, free throw shooting rate of about 65%-70%, this is the data he can currently get.
There is no doubt that this statistic can not be the core player of a team, and the most that can only be the second core of the team, or the third core. So there's a key question, is Wiggins still room to rise? To be honest, the mouth brother hard to play the ball does not say to take the average of 30 points per game, but to take an average of 25 points per game at least there is still this ability, rebounding a game to grab seven or eight should not be a problem, coupled with his defensive ability, you can see the mouth brother as a slightly low-matched Leonard, but need Wiggins to take the initiative to play this way, he can play this kind of play, then he dare not say that it must be the future core of the team, but at least in a team has the right to speak.
This is the best side to say, the mouth brother can rise to this height, if it is to the bad side, the mouth brother is actually the lower limit is also very clear. Averaging 16-18 points per game, rebounds are about 4, assists are 2-3, the positioning of the mouth brother is appropriate is the top D player, the gap between 3D players and core players is very large, up the mouth brother is able to have the opportunity to become a team, all-star starting level players (although now also), down the mouth brother may be completely "invisible". So the time left for the mouth brother is really not much, at most there is more than one season of time, this season's playoffs are crucial, it can be said that it can basically determine the Warriors' attitude to his future, play a good annual salary or 30 million to start, play a good mouth brother's maximum salary contract is not easy to take.
