He looked as confident as ever as he opened the 2022-23 campaign averaging 19.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 steals, while shooting a career-best 51.1% from the field and knocking down 45% of his 6.8 3-point attempts per game.
Wiggins ultimately missed 15 consecutive games, his longest absence from the game in his nine-year NBA career.Golden State dropped seven of its next nine games without him, losing Stephen Curry to a shoulder injury along the way, before going on a five-game home winning streak that helped bring them back above .500.
