James Wiseman has not played for the Warriors this season, and due to a right knee injury, Wiseman has not played for the Warriors since April 2021. In fact, in recent times, Wiseman has resumed participating in the team's training, and even played in the development league for the Warriors, but wiseman's injury problem is not optimistic at present.
According to The Athletic, Wiseman's right knee is now swollen again, which has left him with no training with his teammates for the past two days and will not compete in the development league again:
Considering that Stephen Curry also needs to miss at least two weeks of games, this is certainly a big blow for the Warriors.
On the other hand, according to ESPN reporter Zach Lowe, the team's injury problems in the past have changed Jonathan Cumminga's role in this Warriors team:
'Cumminga's plans are a lot ahead of schedule, maybe he's ready for the playoffs, he's 19 years old and he has first-rate speed, strength and bounce ability.
Simply put, Cumminga's growth so far this season has far exceeded the Warriors' expectations, and he will also perform in this year's playoffs.
Finally, former NBA player Kendrick Perkins is not optimistic about the Warriors' championship opportunities, especially if Curry is injured and needs to return in the playoffs:
"They're over, it's not because the Big Three lack time to be there at the same time, it's that Kerr hasn't figured out the team's rotation lineup yet, and that's why I say Curry is injured and won't come back until the playoffs, and the Warriors' hopes of winning this season have been dashed."
Judging from the team's record performance, if the Warriors can stay healthy, they will indeed have a good competitive strength, and it remains to be seen whether the Warriors will be as troubled as Perkins talked about in the playoffs.
