Andrew Wiggins final injury status for Warriors vs Rockets

On December 6, 2024By Littum

The Golden State Warriors enter tonight’s game against the Houston Rockets far more shorthanded than they would like to be. Before the night, Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Andrew Wiggins were all listed on the injury report.

While Steph Curry and Draymond Green were both immediately listed as out, Wiggins was listed as questionable with a right ankle sprain at the start of the day. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr revealed before the game that it was enough of a problem that it bothered Wiggins.

The biggest news that Kerr revealed pregame is that Wiggins is expected to play against the Houston Rockets tonight. However, he still needed to warm up first.

Andrew Wiggins is expected to play tonight, according to Kerr. He was listed as questionable again with a right ankle contusion. “It’s probably a problem that it bothers him.”

After undergoing warmups, Wiggins was cleared to play and named a starter for Golden State.

Through 18 games this season, Andrew Wiggins is averaging 17.2 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists on 46/42/78 shooting from the field. His production this season has been a massive improvement over last season, when he averaged just 13.2 points a game. The biggest positive for Warriors fans is that his overall production this season has matched what he brought during 2022’s championship season.

Wiggins has only missed two games for the Golden State Warriors this season and has been one of the team’s most reliable players. His return will be a big help as the team faces the second-seeded Houston Rockets.

The Golden State Warriors face the Houston Rockets at 10:00 PM EST tonight.
