The current season hasn’t been the greatest for defending champions Golden State Warriors. Stephen Curry and the Dubs have been struggling in their away-games with a poor 9-29 record. However, they recently broke the jinx and are now not continuously losing when not playing at home. Soon after a recent away-win, the Warriors also received a major update on Andrew Wiggins, who has been away from the team for a while. Regardless, fans seem to want more from the San Francisco side.

The Dubs are currently the 6th seed on the Western Conference table, with a 40-37 record. Moreover, the last three spots to confirm a playoff berth are wide open amongst nine teams in the conference. The reigning champions need to convert their upcoming five games into victories to ensure their place in the postseason. Andrew Wiggins hasn’t been on the lineup – due to an undisclosed reason – for over a month. However, a recent update from the team’s camp suggested a comeback from the 28-year-old. 

Stephen Curry and the side could use a trump card

The Warriors‘ head coach Steve Kerr recently made a massive update on Andrew Wiggins ahead of their Tuesday night game. According to Anthony Slater of the Atlantic, Kerr said that Wiggins has been playing regularly but still isn’t sure about his return. He confirmed that Wiggins is not indefinitely out.

Notably, the Canadian player missed 20 straight games for the Dubs. He played a crucial role in the championship last season. Despite news of his good health, fans did not seem impressed with the update and raised mixed opinions on social media.
