Tell ‘em Steve! It’s the same thing that happened with Klay last season. Everyone just needs to exercise a little patience. If the people who are with him every day and see everything he is or has gone through with the recovery from rib injury and what/where his focus is with getting back to his game as we know it, ie see him working day in and day out, says he will be just fine then there’s zero reason for any of us to be worried.
If he is struggling like this in February, it most certainly is a big deal. Dude has not been right for a little bit, going back to last year.
Wiggs ain’t hungry.
Someone needs to tell him that if he can get one more the way he did in 22, he’ll be HOF.
The 49ers need to give Wiggins the Belt of 17 points back
I really hope his shooting comes back, you just can’t have essentially three-non shooters in your starting lineup in the Modern NBA. Our starters have still not been great offensively, and a big part of that has been because of Wiggins. Just having one more shooter play with our starting lineup would make such a massive difference.
Naw.. Reddit is ALWAYS watching.
The best part is that the team is doing well enough where they can still win without him and it gives the younger players more playing time.
Wiggs can afford to take as much time as he needs and that’s such a luxury.
Yeah I ain’t worried about Wiggs, he’s demonstrated that he will bring it when we really need it. Not sure how people keep doubting him after how he balled out in that playoffs and finals run.
klay’s first 10 games to start off last season
14.5 pts on 35% FG and 32% from 3s
klay’s slow start probably was due to him not playing all summer due to the mental block he had practicing in the offseason
wiggins in comparison is coming back from cartilage rib fracture that i’ve read can take up to 3+ months to heal from so if that’s the case that would’ve set the timeline around the middle of august
we also don’t know what wiggins’ off the court issue was all about that caused him to miss the last 2+ months of the 2022/23 regular season and that could still beaffecting him mentally
i’ll give it another few weeks before really starting to worry about wiggins
course knowing wiggins’ playing history thru out his career when he plays vs a former team, with the next 3 games being CLE and MIN twice … there is a chance we see some spark from wiggins in these upcoming couple of games …. although wiggins didn’t play all that well vs CLE this past sunday so who knows
Broken rib right?
It’s understandable as he gets back into shape, and defenses are still going to respect his shot even while it’s missing. So not hit to spacing.
If Wiggins does return to form (which I believe he will) and can average 17 a game like he normally does, this team is going to be scary. The fact that we already look good without his contributions foreshadows a very bright future.
Kerr just straight up telling people they don’t watch the games
This like a form of calling people nephews or bandwagoners. Not the same meaning but the same category of insult.
