Steve Kerr spoke about Golden State Warriors NBA Champion Andrew Wiggins.

Before the big showdown, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr spoke about Wiggins.

Kerr (via 95.7 The Game): “We all can’t wait to see him tomorrow, and hopefully, he doesn’t give us 42, but I root for that guy, and I will for the rest of his career… Everybody loves Wiggs… Just an incredible human being, and we miss him around here.”

Wiggins made the 2022 NBA All-Star Game (and helped the Warriors win the title that season).

Over 307 games with the Warriors, the former Kansas star averaged 16.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.2 assists per contest while shooting 46.4% from the field and 38.1% from the three-point range.

He is coming off his best game of the season where he put up 42 points.

Via The NBA: “NEW SEASON HIGH IN PTS FOR ANDREW WIGGINS ‼️

🎯 42 PTS 🎯 5 AST 🎯 2 STL 🎯 6 3PM

He’s now the 5th player in Heat franchise history to have 40+ PTS, 5+ AST, & 5+ 3PM in a game!”

The Warriors are the sixth seed in the Western Conference with a 41-30 record in their first 71 games.
