While the Golden State Warriors are battling the Boston Celtics on the court in the 2022 edition of the NBA Finals, James Wiseman is working through his injury rehab.
The former No. 2 overall pick from the 2020 NBA Draft missed his entire sophomore season due to a knee injury. Wiseman’s rookie season was cut short after 39 games due to a torn meniscus. Throughout the 2021-22 campaign, the Memphis product has been rehabbing his knee injury.
Wiseman made a return to the court with the Warriors G League affiliate in March, but suffered a setback before making his highly-anticipated return to Golden State’s rotation. After sitting out the remainder of the regular season and postseason, Wiseman’s return could be approaching.
