Andrew Wiggins Tagged As Questionable For Tuesday - NBA News | Fantasy Basketball
Wiggins' Status Remains Uncertain As Playoff Race Intensifies
After an impressive performance in Sunday's win over the Pacers, Andrew Wiggins has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nets. Wiggins has been dealing with a nagging groin injury that has limited him in recent games, and the Warriors will likely take a cautious approach with their star wing as they prepare for the playoffs. If Wiggins is unable to play, it would be a significant blow to the Warriors' hopes of securing a high seed in the Western Conference. With just a few games remaining in the regular season, every game is crucial, and the Warriors will need Wiggins to be at his best if they want to make a deep playoff run.
Fantasy Impact
Wiggins has been a key contributor for the Warriors this season, averaging 19.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game. He has also been a reliable source of three-pointers, shooting 39.7% from beyond the arc. If Wiggins is unable to play on Tuesday, it would open up more minutes for Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson. Poole has been playing well in recent games, averaging 20.0 points over his last three outings. Thompson has also been solid since returning from injury, averaging 15.0 points per game. However, neither player is a direct replacement for Wiggins, and his absence would be a significant loss for the Warriors.
