Andrew Wiggins has averaged 15.0 points and 6.6 rebounds for Golden State while also providing rock-solid defense at the wing position. His value is immense on both ends of the floor as the Warriors look to maintain their switchability on defense when they play small ball. Wiggs' ability to defend larger wings allows them the versatility to adjust their lineups accordingly

The Golden State Warriors are at their best when Andrew Wiggins is playing like an All-Star. If he continues on his path, the Warriors will be tough to stop.
