"After a somewhat disappointing end to last season, in which Wiggins looked like a shell of himself in the NBA Playoffs, there were some whispers beginning to grow around the idea that perhaps Wiggins didn't want to be in Miami, or that the Heat needed to cut ties with him sooner rather than later. It's safe to say that after a strong summer and a great preseason debut that Wiggins' demise in Miami was greatly exaggerated."
"In just 12 minutes of action, Wiggins looked like the best player on the floor for the Heat. Perhaps the best part of Wiggins' impressive preseason showing was the fact that he did all that while playing perfectly in his role. On the offensive end of the floor, Wiggins played off of both Bam Adebayo and Norman Powell, and defensively, he looked a little more like his old self."
Andrew Wiggins delivered an efficient 11-point, two-assist preseason performance in 12 minutes, displaying strong play on both ends and comfort with and without the ball. Concerns from last season—where he appeared diminished during the playoffs—have eased after a productive summer and a confident debut. Wiggins operated well within a defined role, spacing the floor offensively alongside Bam Adebayo and Norman Powell while showing improved defensive instincts. If he remains healthy, Wiggins projects to play a significant role for Miami this season. Even if the season falters, Wiggins retains substantial trade value heading into the deadline.
