Absence of key players is one of the many nightmares that haunt a sports team. The reigning NBA champions the Golden State Warriors have been dealing with the absence of key personnel for quite some time. It was only today that the Warriors’ biggest star Stephen Curry returned to the team, after battling a leg injury for over a month. Though the Warriors and their fans are relieved to see Steph back, they are still shrouded in uncertainty regarding some recent developments. Another star player’s absence is still haunting the fandom.

Everyone was eager to see Steph back in the game against the Los Angeles Lakers. However, the superstar’s return was ruined after his side lost the game. Given their reputation as the reigning champions, the Warriors fans are eager to see them seize the prize twice in a row. For that dream to materialize, the Warriors will need players who were crucial in the last season’s triumphant campaign. The Dubs’ power forward Andrew Wiggins, who has been out since last month, is the need of the hour for the side.

Fans crave for Wiggins’ return amid lingering uncertainties

Andrew Wiggins means a lot to the Warriors and their fans right now. The performance he delivered last season validates his reputation as a crucial championship piece. At the moment, the Canadian is missed as much as he is loved. Therefore, fans desperately awaited this new report that provided an update on Wiggins’ situation.

The former All-Star has not played for the San Francisco side since February 13 2023. Wiggins is not injured, but it is a ‘family matter’ that has kept the star off the squad. Since Wiggins has been missing for weeks, fans are now restless and they are dying to know what is keeping him off.
