After missing 15 games due to an adductor strain and an illness, Andrew Wiggins made his highly-anticipated return to the Golden State Warriors lineup in early January.
Since returning, Wiggins has played seven games. During that span, Wiggins is averaging 12.4 points on 34% shooting from the field with 3.9 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 28.9 minutes per game.
With Wiggins out, the Warriors could lean on Jonathan Kuminga, JaMychal Green and Anthony Lamb on Wednesday night against the Grizzlies.
The Warriors are set to host the Grizzlies at 7 p.m. PT on Wednesday at San Francisco’s Chase Center.
