"He was just a joy to coach every single day. When you get a guy like that on your team and you go through a lot together, both on and off the court, then you make a trade, it's just like that. It's just crazy, this league, how this business operates. You have to just deal with it but it is sad when your relationships like that are all of a sudden - I mean you still have a relationship but you don't see each other."
"Wiggs is just such a great human being and beloved in our locker room. Had so much success here and helped us turn things around from that two-year stretch when we didn't make the playoffs,"
""He's the best," Curry said before heading out for his pregame warmup."
Andrew Wiggins returned to Chase Center as a Miami Heat player nearly a year after being traded to acquire Jimmy Butler. He reunited warmly with Stephen Curry before the game and received a positive reception from fans and Warriors personnel. Wiggins contributed significantly during five-and-a-half seasons in Golden State, including the 2022 championship and helping the team rebound from two missed-playoff seasons. The trade provoked emotional responses within the Warriors locker room. Wiggins is averaging 15.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists in his first full season with Miami. Heat leadership emphasized appreciation for his presence on the roster.
