A Sore Right Adductor Blamed For The Rescheduling
Andrew Wiggins the talented small forward from the Golden State Warriors has been tagged as questionable for their coming game on Tuesday night. The official Twitter of the Warriors mentioned this news on Monday night.The official tweet from the team read: “Injury Update: Andrew Wiggins (right adductor soreness) is questionable to play for Tuesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings.” It is important to note that Wiggins has had a great season so far, averaging 19.1 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game. So his absence will be impactful on the team. It's worth noting that the Warriors are already dealing with injuries to superstar Stephen Curry and veteran Andre Iguodala.
Luckily for the Warriors, they have a relatively easy schedule for the rest of this week. They will play the Kings on Tuesday, the Lakers on Wednesday, and the Rockets on Friday. This will give them a chance to rest Wiggins and get him back to full health.
Wiggins Has Been A Key Player For The Warriors This Season
He is one of the most versatile players on the team and can play either forward position. However he is most effective at the small forward position. He is also a good defender and has been known to guard some of the best players in the league.The Warriors are hoping that Wiggins will be able to play on Tuesday, but they will not rush him back if he is not ready. They know that they need him healthy for the playoffs.
If Wiggins Is Unable To Play, The Warriors Will Have To Make Some Adjustments
One option would be to start Kevon Looney at center and move Draymond Green to power forward. Another option would be to start Otto Porter Jr. at small forward and move Klay Thompson to shooting guard.No matter what lineup the Warriors go with, they will need to find a way to replace Wiggins' production. He is a key player for them, and his absence will be felt.
