Nasty stuff by Wiggins

A Rubio pass there from Kendall Williams.

He's getting enough touches, problem is he's not getting them in situations where he's naturally comfortable, or in positions where he can make something happen. He's having to force things up to make anything of the possession.

Missed most of the first half, just saw his last 4 points and the block.

Any plays worth mentioning (offense or defense)?

I was wondering if it's because he (or coach) wants his teammates to develop into better players so when march madness comes around they'll be ready, otherwise defenses can just focus on isolating wiggins.

I'm probably just over thinking it, but the thought crossed my mind just because he is noticeably more assertive in the 2nd half of all of his games.

You don't see too many players that can maintain their balance and velocity when they do a spin move without slowing down and immediately jumping on their second step. Once Wiggins polishes up his touch in traffic he's going to become unstoppable with that move mirroring a vintage D-Wade with the spin move.

Anyone else get the feeling that Tharpe has a problem with Wiggins? I swear out of all the games I've seen I think he's passed him the ball maybe a handful of times.

You're not the only one who thinks this. Tharpe has looked off Wiggins quite a bit even when he's open.
