It wouldn't be impossible if he can start shooting. I think for them Wiggins makes more sense then DLO. I wish we didn't give up any picks, but at least they are protected obviously.
And duh they have Klay Thompson and Curry. Both shoot lights out.
Who are these other guys that have become awesome shooters when they went to GS?
IDK, lol. Wiggins will have Draymond yelling at him when he reverts to SAB mode. That'll be entertaining.

Haha ya it's like my buddy said today. Minnesota fans are the most paranoid in sports. Outside of David Ortiz, name one player in any sport that became a stud after they left Minnesota

Billups?
That is the only other name that came to my mind. But 2 players in what 20 years that have come back go haunt. I'll live with that
I slept great last night! I'm not saying it's because the weight of Wiggins underperforming contract has been lifted from my most loved, and hated NBA team, I'm just saying I woke up well rested.

Im happy to hear that. Hope that goodnight sleep means a great Friday. Haha
I'm gonna pile on, just because...
John Hollinger compares Wiggins to a former Grizzlies player. Any guesses who it is...
"Frankly, we had a guy like this once in Memphis. He was big for his position and talented. He could jump, he could shoot okay, and he could do some things in straight lines with the ball in his hands. He wasn't a bad guy, either - everybody liked him off the court. He just wasn't nearly as good at basketball as his first-glance physical tools would have made you think. Like Wiggins, he wasn't a particularly accurate shooter, didn't have a high-revving motor, and didn't read or feel the game well - especially defensively. And, as appears to be the case with Wiggins in Minnesota, his apathetic play sucked the life out of the room for everyone else.
(True story: We actually made a list of the league's "hell no!" contracts once in Memphis, and his [Wiggins] featured prominently.)"
I wonder if Q could make an educated guess on this one...

It certainly sounds like Rudy Gay, but it couldn't be him because even he was leaps and bounds more productive on the court than Andrew Wiggins despite both being big disappointments. The proof is in the pudding -- or rather the advanced statistics in this case.
