6. Andrew Wiggins, Golden State Warriors
Andrew Wiggins had such an inconsistent start to his NBA career that it’s easy to forget just how good he is. When the Golden State Warriors won the championship a couple of seasons ago, you could make the argument that he was the second-best player on the team behind Stephen Curry. The fact that he’s evolved into such an important player for the Warriors is a testament to his talent and the fact that he was in such a bad place to start his career.
Even while missing more than half the year last season, Wiggins still averaged 17 points and five rebounds per game on 47 percent shooting from the field and 40 percent shooting from 3-point range. And that was considered a season in which he never found his footing in.
We must also remember that Wiggins is still just 28 years old. There’s a very real chance that he still has 4-5 years remaining of high-quality basketball left in him. He should be a key cog for the Warriors for years to come.
