The Warriors knew exactly what Andrew Wiggins was dealing with and they never pressured him to return. They gave him the space and allowed him to take care of his family. As it should be.
The Warriors did not want Wiggins to be in another part of the continent. They did not ask for it. They granted their fellow employee time and space to attend to his personal business.These are the times of hot takes, tacky opinions and online screeds. We live in an era in which a segment of society uses social media to decry, defame, hate and lie. And if the Warriors fall into the dreaded play-in tournament, there is no doubt many keyboard gremlins will fire up their fingers and blame Wiggins.
The scurrilous rumors were rampant – the way of the world – but Wiggins felt no need to clarify. It is known to be a family matter, but he offered no details. “He let us know from the beginning what was going on,” coach Steve Kerr said. “So, it wasn’t mysterious. It was a case of Andrew being really open about what was happening and us telling him to go take care of his family. We didn’t really call him and text him all the time. We’d check in occasionally, but we were trying to give him the space.”
