Through the first 15 games of the season, the Lakers are 11-4, and third in the Western Conference. Given their chances of being title contenders this season, they should be in the mix for players such as Wiggins.<\/p>\n<p>Wiggins was traded from the Golden State Warriors to the Miami Heat last season as part of the Jimmy Butler trade. The one-time All-Star and 2022 NBA champion is averaging 16.7 points and 4.9 rebounds per game this season. Wiggins was a key piece of the 2022 Warriors championship squad as arguably that team\u2019s second-best player behind Stephen Curry.<\/p>\n<p>Given the lack of quality wing depth on the Lakers\u2019 roster, Wiggins would be a solid addition next to Doncic, James, and Austin Reaves given his ability to be a 3-and-D wing that can also create his own shot.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Lakers could be in the mix for Andrew Wiggins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":122252,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-122251","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
