Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins is putting together another solid season. Klay Thompson has even argued he's having an All-Star season. But that's another discussion.
Wiggins is one of the Warriors' most trusted players offensively and defensively. When it comes to Andre Iguodala, the trust he has in Wiggins came off the court. Where he found his comfort in Wiggins came from an unexpected source.
“I saw we had a common teammate, Jimmy Butler, and Jim Butler had nothing but amazing things to say about Wigs, and he really liked playing with Wigs. That was all I needed to hear, to be honest, because Jimmy doesn't like anybody. So when Jimmy said he like Wigs, I started to look at it differently,” Warriors vet Andre Iguodala told ClutchPoints.

In Friday night's game against the Boston Celtics, Wiggins and Iguodala were terrific. Wiggins finished the game with 27 points and 6 rebounds in 36 minutes. At the same time, Iggy recorded 12 points, 6 assists, and 4 rebounds in 24 minutes off the bench. The duo helped secure a 111-107 victory over Boston.




The team's chemistry is one of the main reasons the Warriors are 24-5 and have the best record in the NBA. The mix of young and older players has made the perfect combination for success.

A wise veteran leader like Warriors star Andre Iguodala understands the significance of chemistry, and it doesn't always start on the court. Sometimes you have to look at things from a different vantage point to achieve the right outcome. That's what he's done this season with Andrew Wiggins, and it's working perfectly.
