Andrew Wiggins looked like he was turning a corner this year when another personal family matter pulled him away from the team. The 29 year old former All-Star looks like a shell of himself once again and while some Warrior fans want to know what happened, all of them want to know how far the team can go without a focused Wiggs this year. - กีฬา
Who else skips the ad segment of the video
Yo 1k‼️😂 no ad money? WOMP WOMP😂
Me
Me
i think thats why he adds the green bar at the bottom, lets us know where to skip to
I suspect everyone.
I always fast forward past that shit
RJ Barrett’s brother died recently, man that’s some sad shit. Hope that didn’t happen with wiggs
Survival of the fittest
@@LeStephanie69the fack is wrong with you
It didn't
@@LeStephanie69 no way you're this stupid
It's his cheating woman
bro you speak so smoothly I barely noticed I had it on .75 speed
💀💀 he sounds drunk af
2x speed is better.
How u not notice that bruh?
I think you meant 1.25 cause he sounds normal there
@@rougeclips9438 nah fam I thought he was taking his sweet time
Appreciate it for always providing us with the best quality videos AM Hoops 🔥
The guy has the physical attributes of Tracy McGrady but the heart of Ben Simmons.
He had plenty of heart in 2022 but his head's not right lately, something's distracting him from basketball.
@@danteeudora6330 He's played winning basketball for 6 months. That is the outlier. People give Poole shit, but he helped that team win the chip too. People act like Wiggins is different from Poole, but according to Jimmy Butler, they are not that different.
TOTALLY. He has Ben Simmons-idis. Least effort and let me collect on the $$$ that I conned the NBA out of.
Nailed it
Well said.
Who would have thought that the infamous “bag” given to Wig and poole is going to turn out as the worst2 contracts in the NBA.
I know right.
And Ben Simmons
Wiggins didn’t get a bag he took a contract for less than he was already making and way less than market value coming off the championship season. His deal is nowhere near the worst even if he doesn’t play at all, it’s simply nowhere near enough money to be
Worst players are become good because of chef curry's effect. Simply the defense aren't focus on them so they have freedom whatever they want. Same as the other guys like podz despite of their rookie they looks like pro and the next big thing. Remember when kerr said steph is like the new MJ. That's how good steph was.
IKR 🤦🏼♀️
Athleticalchemy said it best. You can have your privacy, that's your prerogative, but don't expect sympathy from us. If he said, "Hey, my dad is in the hospital, gimme some time" or "Hey, I'm going through a divorce, gimme some time" I think people would understand. But by not even giving a vague description of his reasons for being away, he leaves the door open for people to question his commitment to basketball and the team. Kyrie disappeared from Brooklyn for a while without explanation and everyone absolutely DID question his commitment, Wiggs isn't going to be treated any differently. He can make us forget he was gone if he plays well, but he's too inconsistent. As a Warriors fan, I'm painfully aware that we have no chance to win a single playoff series without the Two Way Wiggs of old. We desperately need him to show up. I hope he can get his head right soon, because it's clear there's something wrong, and it isn't physical.
Well said!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Not nearly the same thing. Kyrie was on BS before, during and after, Wiggs plummeted ONLY after that happened, meaning its not about commitment, its about THAT thing.
Not only that, people were already talking even before we gave him his space, as soon as he took time off the infidelity thing came up
@@felipecouto1102 yeah but we don’t know what THAT thing is. There’s nothing new under the sun. I think if Isaiah could be transparent about a death he can be transparent about whatever it is. If it’s infidelity then he can just say “family issues.”…..but to say nothing is only detrimental to Wiggins and support from his fans…if he has any.
See the thing is he doesn’t owe you guys any information. Yeah he needs to play bit that about it. Us putting him under the microscope doesn’t make it any bettwr
@@felipecouto1102 Wiggs has always been a bust. He had SIX months of good play. That is the outlier.
I would say it is no one’s business, except…… he is playing in a high profile job relying on fan support to pay his “lottery winner” type salary and wants commercial advertising dollars on top of that. No problem with fans wanting to know what the issue is. It is OK to ask what is the reason. That said, there is nothing wrong with him wanting to keep it private. If you don’t like that…. Don’t buy his jersey, don’t buy tickets to his games or watch them on TV.
So many uploads recently! You’re killing it, my guy!!
Wiggins has turned into 2016 Finals Harrison Barnes
Lol
I mean at least wiggins played like all star in the finals when it matter
@@yahiaali4059 Yup, that one and only time. Remember he had a bad subpar career and bad rep already coming from Minnesota and those Finals with the Warriors salvaged his legacy, but he's refressing back to be even WORSE than before and killing his legacy with his play this year.
@@crosswiz6 he played well throughout those playoffs he averaged 20/10 against the mavs held luka to the worst fg% of that playoffs . He wasn’t even bad on Minnesota it’s just ppl compared him to kobe obviously he ain’t that but dude puttin up 24 ppg no way he can be bad lol
@@crosswiz6in retrospect, Wiggins should’ve never been a #1 draft pick, but well deserving of top 10. So people just need to stop thinking of him as a #1. Also to be fair, there have been WAY WAY WAY worse #1 draft picks. Wiggs is not doing well both personally and on court, but he can get back to peak form. Will he? We’ll see.
I've probably watched 100 of your videos. Finally subscribed. Keep up the good work!
Love your videos. So much great content
casey, bro i love the content! you are my favorite basketball content creator. and i also love the podcast. keep it up 👍
Love your videos
There's only 1 thing I've seen completely rip away all joy and happiness from a person until they end their entire career or worse and that is the loss of a child even an unborn child. I seriously do pray that this is not what happened with Andrew Wiggins. Because life is never the same after something that horrific but considering how long it has been since this took place It is something that must be considered because it's obvious there is no joy or happiness in that man right now And it's well over a year later maybe 2.
We need Andrew Wiggins from the championship run I miss 2-way wiggs
Oh get over it. Wiggs is MINNESOTA WIGGS IN REALITY. His family bullsh8t is just that. I never bought it. HE MAKES TOO MUCH DAMN $$$ TO BE TREATED like he has some "tribal" demands whatever you culture. YOU WORK IN THE MODERN WORLD AND MAKE MILLIONS. STOP ACTING LIKE YOU WORK AT MCDONALDS. I think he is missing a screw, sorry. It is the way he handled the whole MIA thing where he didn't care about leaving the fan base and the lack of real connection to the Warriors team. HE ALWAYS ACTS LIKE HE IS VISITING. WE DON'T NEED TO KNOW DETAILS. WE NEED TO KNOW WHY HE CAN'T ACT LIKE A MODERN MAN WITH A HIGH PAYING JOB, THAT IS THE PROB. WHERE IS HIS DEDICATION TO HIS EMPLOYMENT OR THE CONTRACT HE MADE W HIS EMPLOYER. I TELL YOU HE HAS SOME PSYCHOLOGICAL FLAW CALLED INCONSISTENT AND LAZY.
Wiggs needs new scenery.
Putting him in a trade for Giannis is best.
The Dubs run ended in the playoffs last season.
It's over.
@@kentstallard6512that’s the fuel they need right there to prove the haters all wrong. They do it every time!
@@champspec They need more than fuel.
I'm not a hater. I hate the Lakers. Can't stand the big mouthed buffoon and cheap shot artist Draymond but other than that I admire the team and what they've accomplished.
But it's now Steph on an island. Kuminga ain't enough. They blew it when they let Porter and Peyton go and bet on the unproven youngsters.
Love your vids man, also curious what team you go for?
Thanks for your content!
Thank you!!
@@AMHoops i've seen all your videos. I really wish i could contribute with larger gifts but our country's economy doesn't help
@@jeronimoferronato1860 all good brotha, thank you 🙏🏼
That was a very smooth ad transition
Wiggs was one of my favorite players and when we won the championship I was so happy and high on him. Fuck why has this happened it hurts me to watch him now … he’s such a good dude we probably got to trade him but it’ll suck
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁💯
As a Raptors fan, we did just get some sad news about one of our players and he just took a leave of absence from the team. Our season is over, but I hope he doesn't let this emotionally destroy him for years to come. Oh, and to anyone who is ignorant and thinks Wiggins is soft, you don't know what it's like losing a family member, my Aunt passed away a couple of years ago and my mother couldn't work for a few weeks she was so sad and depressed.
Ignore the troll, condolences to you and your mother.
@Schopenhauer6969 Try losing a loved one and then talk shit prick.
@Schopenhauer6969lol thats messed up but funny as hell at the sametime
@@etherieeetheriee1636 🤬
Bro this is the 2nd season in a row stfu
Things are looking good for me 👍
Thanks
good vod
Bro looks 92.5 years old in the thumbnail.
with how good kuminga been playing, wiggins is currently the most expandable player in warriors
I don't need to skip YT does that for me automatically 🤙
It's because they don't utilize Wiggins properly, especially in the low post when he has a mismatch. They should give him more isolation plays, not just use him as a screener to get their shooters open. I hope they give Wiggs more playing time so he can regain his confidence!
I agree! Let's give Wiggins more ISO play!"
A dude works in a public space getting millions of dollars and is out for uniquely extended period (don't recall anyone else being out that long for "personal" reasons) for two consecutive seasons. It's expected that paying fans will have questions and are owed some kind of explanation that make sense. Family/Father illness no longer makes sense. Not for the 2nd year.
Right. People buy season tickets, jerseys, shoes (if they have a shoe deal) based on players so for people to say that’s none of the fans business is a crazy thought. Fine he take all the time he wants just give me my money back then.
I think this really goes into how much of a disconnection there is with mental health if he was hurt physically I think everyone would have a different tone I think players should be allowed personal games or time a week or a number of games at any point in the season where they can take time for themselves
I think it's entirely possible that the Warriors one day become champions with Jonathan Kuminga as their best player. The question is if that happens before or after Steph, Klay and Draymond retire.
Just no..... There's no way JK becomes the best player on a championship team 🤣 Thanks for the laugh!
Nah mai hoki mai bless you Wiggins and healthy life in the world 🌎 🙏 ka.pai have awesome things 🙏✨️🎉💕
Wife cheating is what I suspected from the beginning. He's not trying to advertise that. I'm glad you mentioned that because I hadn't actually heard that from anywhere before.
Firestarter, like kick rocks Prodigy...damn.
I believe it's the seemingly toxic behind the scenes GS environment that is wearing in AW. Plus, he was scapegoated by Kerr early in the season and taken out of the starting lineup when the issues were bigger than just AW. Plus, his best friend on the ream was Jordan Poole. I think a change of scenery will do wonders for his game... Toronto anyone?
Prayers for Wiggins
im not gonna even lie… this guy deserves way more popularity then rn man… best quality basketball news ever. Keep up the work
Ok then don’t even lie 😂 wtf
Hello my good sir.
As a Warrior fan in Minnesota I feel that I can speak on Andrew Wiggins! In my opinion I don't think Andrew loves the game of basketball...I think he does it because he's good at it and it has made him a lot of money but he doesn't love it...If it was me I would have traded him for a big before the trading deadline but we know the Warriors are all about their players feelings...Just imagine how good the Warriors would be if every time Wiggins or Kuminga got the ball they attacked the basket...You always have the other team in foul trouble and our shooters would get a ton of open shots...but no we got Wimpy in his feelings...family crisis or not...
Plus wiggs gets paid a 9-figure contract.... It could have been ok if he was like a Mid-level exception or like 10 million a year. But as one of the supposed to be stars in the Bay Area, the most valuable (and most arguably one of the most famous teams) in the NBA, scrutinization is all but inevitable as the fans are running out of sympathy for him...
I was thinking this a while back. I call it the Ben Simmons effect. Loves the money but hates his job.
I really hope that you aren't from Minnesota and just moved there. Because to be from Minnesota and be a warriors fan is the corniest thing I've ever heard in my life
@@Cbrunning849fans like him here in Minnesota are little kids 😂😂
Nice.
As a Warriors fan only person I’m trading Wiggins for is either Mikal Bridges or Lauri Markkanen but we still NEED Wiggins because he’s one of the best POA’s in the whole Nba, played amazing defense on Luka again without Curry and Draymond so yes even when Wiggs isn’t really locked in his offense is a mess but we don’t need his offense anymore that’s what Kuminga is for now all we need is for Wiggins to be that LOCKDOWN wing defender every contender wants and needs! I WANT to keep Wiggins around and matter of fact next year I want Kerr to go big with the Starting 5, I want it to be Curry, Wiggins, Kuminga, Draymond and TJD, off the bench we still got Podz, Klay, Moody, Looney Gp2 and if we bring back Cp3, also that late second round pick we got and also free agency we can get another backup 4 or 5!
Yo bro can you please make a video on if you think the raptors will make the play in tournament or not please please I asked before to
He isn’t obligated to tell us fans what is going on and us fans are not obligated to be patient. Everyone in the NBA plays through personal issues and many of us regular folks work through tough times. The team pays him handsomely to be there, and he hasn’t been there much the last 2 seasons 💯
there we go the gambling sponsor is back. had to take a little break for the gambling topic vid.
Complete two faced sell out. Made me totally lose respect for Casey.
Just get rid of Wiggins. He is no good for whatever reason.
Have a fxcken cry 😂😂😂

On $20 million a year im struggling to have sympathy 😂 all the rest of us on $50k a year can't have this kind of time off no matter how gnarly the situation.
Ya and 50 is good..........half the country makes less than that, and this idiot Ben Simmons has money for lifetimes. Something is wrong with society............
When you get paid millions of dollars to play a game, unless your daddy's dying this week, get your ass on the court.
Finally someone speaking my language.😂😂😂
Warriors gotta play gui Santos more, he’s shown some flashes of prime Andrew Wiggins 2.0
“Something bad happens that sucks the talent from your best player” idk why but immediately thinking about kyrie when people used to say he was moody but never asked what happened
Wanting answers and getting those answers isnt gonna solve the problem
I am THAT fan that is running out of patience.
"What if its sad" 😂
Sup dawgs
Whatever it is, it's gotta be bad. Really, really bad. Far worse than infidelity or the death of a sibling. It's gotta be something capable of truly destroying a man in a single blow. I hope he's getting help. It's just sad. The whole thing is too terribly sad.
Real ones know this is from the AM Hoops podcast 🙏
I waited 10 minutes and had 200k when you hit 100 awesome map
3:41 Isiah Thomas is a center? Good shit lmao
I believe only the dark web has the true reason for Wiggins absences 😱💀
2:09 You're welcome
I think it’s more unusual to act like nothing’s happening than to confront the reality of the matter at hand. If they can maintain the motivation to keep this shrouded in secrecy they need to find the same motivation to do what’s best for the team and put Moody in the starting lineup. Personally, I’d send him home to handle his business until he can properly focus on his job. Inserting Moody back as a starter would help the younger core gain some much needed playoff game experience in preparation for a serious playoff run next season.
RIP Nathan Barrett, prayers for his brother RJ and their family 🙏
Wiggins look like an old man in that thumbnail 😬
Crazy bc Wiggs was an All Star Starter, and was a big reason the Dubs won the NBA Finals putting the Clamps on Tatum...
Head case...we all have personal problems. I was suspect when it was reported he slammed his hand in the car door. How many people do that.
From two-way-wigs to phone-it-in-wigs
i could see it actually being an injury but golden state and wiggens doesnt want people figuring that out. in case they could trade him.
Doesn’t work like that. You have to disclose injuries in a trade.
You think the Warriors would beat the Thunder. Can you post up a video about that?
Without Klay and Wiggins being in 2022 form, Warriors just not getting out of the first round. Top three teams in the West too tough this year and those are their two top wing defenders and have been top scorers too.
Just got to pray for Wiggs. Dear Lord please comfort Wiggs. Give him comfort and peace in his trial that you have him in your hands. Restore his confidence. Release the weight he is carrying. Help channel his energy for good
In Christ's name.
No. As a Warriors fan it doesn’t matter what happened in his personal life. What matters is that we just want him to be ok and be back at full strength.
So, who else remembers when Larry Sanders and D-Rose leave the team for some personal reasons more than once? If anyone says that every player deals with personal issues and still plays, is being entitled to a point of wanting to force Wiggins to play through personal matters.
Who else skips any sponser given to any videos on a.m hoops 😅
Michael Porter Jr is going through hell in his family and he still balling
Nah.....your wrong Casey. Wiggins got the bag$$$$. He just doesn't work hard once he gets the Bag$$$$
Mental state is stopping Wiggins from being Wiggins😭
Yea that’s definitely mental because he’s shooting the lowest field goal attempts of his career it means he’s being aggressive
Jazz ain’t trading Markkenen bluddy
Kuminga is a champion too
Barely. He was there but not a significant role
The villains from space jam stole his game
Andrew wiggins's Identical twin took his spot when he went home for the "family issue" 100% accurate
In Light of all this.... I just hope the toilet flushes today.... The coat hanger trick is getting old 😒
he'll be back for the playoffs
We need an aggressive Wiggins Dunkin on the face of opponents
Oh God get over it. Wake up to what Wiggs really is: he is a heartless player who conned the NBA with his talent but lacked passion since Minnesota. HE LIKES THE $$ BUT IS LAZY AND INCONSISTENT.
He has a personal bet with Poole as to who can outdo who as far as biggest disappointment of 2024.
i told you so!!
-jimmy butler & carl anthony towns
He took time off to deal with whatever is going on, sure. But if you're on the court, gametime, getting paid millions, there's no excuses.
Fr, when he's on the court, supposedly good to go, he still plays bad.
Remember how inconsistent he was in Minnesota?He is still that same person
The Wiggins hate is crazy. Let the warriors mess around and grind out the play-in, and Wiggs is the go to player 😱😱
It's basketball, not politics. So it's the Warriors' business, not ours. Including it's the Warriors' business to manage the "messaging" surrounding his absences. And they're managing it with pretty much the same ineptitude they managed the Draymond-Poole fiasco, Draymond's indefinite suspension, etc. They clearly are not champions of "transparency!" And we'll probably keep paying whatever we have to in order to keep seeing whatever Steph does on the court - a generational player, one of a kind, etc. (justifies their business decision, as much as i find that annoying)
There is very few personal excuses for sitting put for family reasons. Wiggins is Just the new Ben Simmons at this point.
Sup
he’s recovering from broken ribs thats kinda why he’s been down on everything and also some family shit going on
Thanks for the insight ..
Man how you know bc I've been looking
Let’s be real they’re not making it out of the play-in with the mavs, suns, kings or pels in the mix
Obviously I’m speculating, but I wonder if he’s in a major depressive episode. It would make sense in a lot of ways. I feel bad for him, because clearly there’s something off about him.
No Lebron trade?
Danny Ainge still did IT dirty 🙅🏽♂️
2:55 and still make this kind of video😅
If only klay never got those injuries
All of us faces real life difficulties and still go to work daily. That is some BS excuse.
Could have stopped with "it's probably none of our business.
imagine having all that talent and no heart
