James Wiseman’s first NBA bucket in more than a year was a reminder that the best could be yet to come for the defending champion Warriors
There were shades of the player Wiseman has been projected to be. He hit a fadeaway jumper in the first half. He made an 18-footer from the elbow in the second. With the game close, Wiseman picked up a second dunk late in the fourth quarter. Facing NBA-level physicality, Wiseman looked comfortable.
Overcoming the physical hurdles to be able to play were difficult. So, too, were the mental ones. For support, Wiseman leaned on Klay Thompson, his Warriors teammate, and Shaun Livingston, an ex-NBA guard and Golden State executive. Both Thompson and Livingston suffered significant injuries in their playing careers. And both overcame them.
Wiseman’s potential offers Golden State a unique opportunity for internal improvement. With Wiseman, along with Kuminga and Moses Moody, the Warriors have an enviable young core. If all three are ready—Kuminga, a ’21 lottery pick, showed flashes last season—Golden State could have one of the deepest and most talented rotations in the league.
