NBA rumors: Andrew Wiggins to make Warriors debut Saturday vs. Lakers

Share

Newly acquired Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins reportedly will make his debut with the team after all Saturday night, as the Warriors host the Los Angeles Lakers at Chase Center.

The Athletic's Anthony Slater first reported the news, citing a source.

Wiggins was brought in Thursday as part of a blockbuster trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves that saw a host of Warriors, including point guard D'Angelo Russell sent to Minneapolis.

The former No. 1 overall pick arrived in the Bay Area on Friday night and already has shown his excitement about joining Golden State.

His defensive ability immediately will be put to the test, as he'll likely line up mostly against Lakers star Lebron James in his Warriors debut.
