Wiggins Shows Signs of Reemergence Against Thunder
It’s been a rough start to the season for Andrew Wiggins. Battling some conditioning issues that popped up at the end of last season due to a knee injury, he’s looked slow and passive to start the season. Tonight against OKC, however, Wiggins looked somewhat more like his normal self, aggressively attacking the basket to the tune of 50% from the field in spite of going 0 for 5 from three.

First Glimpse of Gary Payton II in Extended Minutes
I’ll be honest, I was a little apprehensive after the Warriors’ front office chose to forego signing Avery Bradley to the team’s 15th spot and went with Gary Payton II—even despite Payton’s better play in limited minutes during the pre-season. I was even more apprehensive after I learned that Draymond, Steph, and Iguodala all pushed the Warriors’ front office to sign Bradley, and still the front office went in a different direction.
