Andrew Wiggins Faces Game-Time Decision for Mavs Clash

Wiggins Listed as Questionable with Adductor Strain

Andrew Wiggins is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks due to an adductor strain. Wiggins suffered the injury in Monday's win over the Oklahoma City Thunder and did not practice on Tuesday.

The severity of Wiggins' injury is unclear, but it is considered minor. He is expected to test the injury before the game and could be a game-time decision. If Wiggins is unable to play, Klay Thompson is likely to start in his place.

Injury History

Wiggins has a history of adductor injuries. He missed two games last season with a similar injury. He has also missed time in previous seasons with other adductor injuries.

Impact on Warriors

Wiggins' absence would be a significant blow to the Warriors. He is one of their best defenders and is averaging 17.2 points per game this season. Thompson is a capable replacement, but he is not as good a defender as Wiggins.

Warriors vs. Mavericks Preview

The Warriors are 5-1 this season without Wiggins in the lineup. However, the Mavericks are a tough opponent, and they have won their last two games. The Warriors will need to be at their best if they want to win without Wiggins.
