However, there are plenty of positives the franchise can take from the up-and-down season. Andrew Wiggins posted career highs in field goal and three-point percentage. He averaged 18.6 points per game during the season and became the team’s best perimeter defender.</p><p>Wiggins had a very productive year in his <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/golden-state-warriors">first full season</a> with the Warriors. The 2014 number one draft pick wants to be more than effective. Wiggins wants to be known as one of the best defenders in the NBA.</p><blockquote>“I got a lot of goals I want to accomplish at some point in my career…I’m going to keep working at it. I’m going to keep defending my ass off to make it on the defensive teams. That’s a big goal of mine,” Wiggins <a href="https://twitter.com/markhaynesnba/status/1396174794509328384?s=19">told ClutchPoints.</a></blockquote><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">After last night's loss, Andrew Wiggins expressed his desire to make an NBA All-Defensive team.<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/DubNation?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">#DubNation</a> <a href="https://t.co/OPaVkCVuOR" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/OPaVkCVuOR</a></p><p>— Mark Haynes (@markhaynesnba) <a href="https://twitter.com/markhaynesnba/status/1396174794509328384?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">May 22, 2021</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Wiggins defended the opposing team’s best offensive threat throughout the season for the Warriors. He established himself to his team as a legitimate two-way player.</p><blockquote>“And if I’m not there (All-Defensive team) this year, then next year I’m going to keep fighting for it, keep getting better, keep asserting myself to put myself in a position to be mentioned,” Wiggins told Warriors reporters.</blockquote><p>The Warriors had one of the best defenses in the league. Adding Klay Thompson next year will add a much-needed boost offensively. All of the young guys received a valuable experience this season that will surely leave a bitter taste in their mouths. A bitter taste that they will be eager to get rid of next season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It took an improbably LeBron three-pointer to lift the Lakers over the Warriors. However, one bright spot was the impressive play of Andrew Wiggins, who was given the tough task of guarding LeBron for the majority of the contest.</p><p>After the game, Wiggins spoke on how it was guarding LeBron James.</p><blockquote>“My mindset was to go out there — pick him up full court — just try to make him uncomfortable,” the forward told the media. “He’s one of the all-time greats. So I just tried to make it tough on him. That’s the main thing. Be aggressive, just try to make it hard on him,” Wiggins said, <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/warriors/andrew-wiggins-details-mindset-vs-lebron-james-play-loss">according to Drew Shiller of NBC Sports Bay Area. </a></blockquote><p>Well, it worked. Wiggins visibly frustrated LeBron throughout the game. He started it off with an impressive block of The King early in the first quarter as the Warriors set the tone right out of the gate.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Andrew Wiggins with the clamps <a href="https://t.co/0UtkLaqYok" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/0UtkLaqYok</a></p><p>— NBA Central (@TheNBACentral) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheNBACentral/status/1395203846604038144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">May 20, 2021</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Wiggins limited LeBron as he shot just<a href="https://twitter.com/findingneema23/status/1395251695626723330"> 2-10 when guarded by Wiggins</a>, with both of the made field goals tough jump shots with Wiggins in his grill. He didn’t back down, yet he embraced the challenge of guarding one of the best players to ever step on the basketball court.</p><p>Despite the tough Warriors’ loss, Wiggins continues to have a revelation of a season in the Bay Area. In his first full season as a Warrior, he is <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/andrew-wiggins/b9e10a64/stats">averaging 18.6 points</a> with 4.9 rebounds and a career-high 38 percent clip from beyond the arc.</p><p>All in all, if the Dubs want to get past the Memphis Grizzlies and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/3-bold-predictions-for-grizzlies-warriors-play-in-game/">snag the 8-seed</a> in the Western Conference, they will need a similar performance from Wiggins.

Denials against the Los Angeles Lakers star are even more scarce on jump-shots, let alone fadeaways.</p><p>But apparently Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins didn’t get that memo. The Toronto-born swingman stood his ground against James, who was bumping bodies in the post. Wiggins refused to yield against LeBron and swatted away his fading shot to force a shot clock violation for the Lakers. You don’t see that everyday.</p><p>Check out the <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1395204244567838720?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1395204244567838720%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fclutchpoints.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost-new.php">strong defensive stand</a> from Wiggins against LeBron:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Andrew Wiggins with 7 quick points and some early clamps on LeBron ❌<a href="https://t.co/cpsZmkmiI0" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/cpsZmkmiI0</a></p><p>— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPointsApp) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1395204244567838720?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">May 20, 2021</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>The Lakers vs. Warriors play-in game is in full swing. With athletic forward Kelly Oubre <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/golden-state-warriors/injuries">out of action</a> for the dubs, and Draymond Green deployed on another All-Star in Anthony Davis, it’s been Andrew Wiggins who’s drawn the unenviable task of keeping LeBron James contained.</p><p>Wiggins more than held his own in the opening quarter of their play-in tournament tilt. He notched seven quick points for the Warriors while LeBron James was limited to just five points and one assist for the Lakers.</p><p>The titanic Warriors vs. lakers matchup would determine which team nabs the seventh seed and faces off against the second-seeded Phoenix Suns. The loser would then face the Memphis Grizzlies, who survived their own play-in matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
