While the Warriors have revealed that the player is on a leave for personal reasons, the speculation suggests it’s due to Wiggins’ girlfriend, Mychal Johnson’s infidelity. Wiggins hasn’t addressed the rumors as expected, but the increasing noise forced his girlfriend to step in and clear the air. This has led to fans keeping a keen eye on all her Twitter activity and her latest tweet has caught the NBA world’s attention.
Everyone confounded over “personal” reasons behind Andrew Wiggins’ absence
The team and Warriors’ management have been silent on the matter and respected the player’s privacy. However, it has left fans demanding answers, because of the team’s flailing chances of going back-to-back after last year’s championship win.

As the speculation grows, the rumor of Wiggins’ girlfriend cheating on the Warriors star with his best friend has piqued fans’ curiosity. Addressing the rumors, Johnson tweeted, “Literally the farthest thing from the truth. It’s sad y’all even doing this.”
Now, her latest tweet has again got fans speculating. Last night, Mychal tweeted, “My dad a real one. IYKYK.” While it is difficult to deduce the exact meaning behind her tweet, fans have offered their opinions.
The Dubs fans are prying for more information
It is possible that the tweet might not be as cryptic as fans are making it out to be. However, considering the current situation around Wiggins, it was difficult for the fans to stay silent. One fan responded by commenting, “She’s not denying anything or setting any thing straight.”
