The Golden State Warriors currently lead the Dallas Mavericks 2-0 in the series. They're just two wins away from returning to the NBA Finals. However, the team has been concerned with the health of Andrew Wiggins who has stepped his game up in the postseason. With Game 3 quickly approaching, Steve Kerr delivers some great news for the fanbase.
According to Marc Stein, Andrew Wiggins will play in Game 3 against the Mavs. This is massive for the Warriors as they'll have a majority of their roster available in Dallas. Golden State has benefited from Wiggins' consistency throughout the playoffs, as he's proven to be a reliable option for this team.

Wiggins fell to injury in Game 2, which led to him being listed questionable for Sunday night's matchup. The ankle was bothering him during the postgame but the small forward claims he feels better and is ready to participate in Game 3, per Anthony Slater. The Warriors head to Dallas to face the Mavs with Andrew Wiggins ready for tip-off.

It's been a fun back and forth series so far with the Warriors stealing a win in the final quarter in both games. The Mavs aim to get back in the win column though, as Luka Doncic will do everything in his power to help his team. Golden State just needs to stay focused as they look like the better team in the Western Conference right now. It should be a fun game on Sunday night, especially with Wiggins officially participating.
Look for Andrew Wiggins to make some noise in Game 3. With Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Jordan Poole taking much of the Mavs' attention, Wiggins has been able to capitalize on his opportunities. If the Warriors can take a commanding 3-0 lead over Dallas, then this series might as well be a wrap. Tune in at 9 P.M. Eastern on TNT to watch these two organizations battle it out in the NBA Playoffs.
