Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins has officially been cleared to return to action on Saturday for Game 1 of Golden State’s first-round playoff series against the Kings, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
This would be Wiggins’s first game appearance since Feb. 13 after he left the team to deal with a family matter as his father battles a “serious medical condition.” He returned to the team during the last week of the regular season, but missed the final 25 games of the season.
Wiggins is not expected to start on Saturday for Game 1, but instead is expected to come off the bench for 20 to 25 minutes of game time, sources told Charania.
