To be clear – nothing wrong with fans wondering, asking questions or wanting to know when he’ll be back. It’s the folks with no knowledge of the situation I saw on here spreading nasty lies that they prob heard on some rando tik tok, people calling WIggins not dedicated, etc. – 4:41 PM

To all the so-called #dubnation members who spread horrible rumors about Andrew Wiggins, Mychal and their family, and criticized him, don’t you dare now put the jersey back on and act like you’re a fan when he returns. – 4:28 PM

More on this storyline
Adrian Wojnarowski: ESPN Sources: Golden State Warriors All-Star forward Andrew Wiggins is nearing a return to the team and is expected to be back early this week. Wiggins has missed 21 games attending to a family matter. Huge boost for the defending champions and sixth seed in the West. -via Twitter @wojespn / April 3, 2023
There’s a reason Wiggins hasn’t been ruled out for the season. There remains a belief he might show up in the coming days. It isn’t blind ambition. There’s been some level of signaling. But the clock is ticking and nobody behind the scenes is guaranteeing anything. Wiggins has told them he has been working out privately recently, but an intake process and some amount of ramp-up will be needed if he does return. -via The Athletic / April 3, 2023
CJ Holmes: Still no updates on Andrew Wiggins. If Wiggins can’t return this season, Steve Kerr says he’ll likely continue to ride with Donte DiVincenzo as a starter entering the postseason. -via Twitter @CjHolmes22 / March 31, 2023
