"Wiggins has been a tough player to try to evaluate at times this season. He is actually having a career year in three-point shooting, and his 39.8% rate from three would be just the third time in his career he has been north of 39%. His overall field goal percentage is also the highest of his career, and he is on pace for the 2nd most blocks of his career."
"But what has really made Wiggins hard to evaluate is that he will have a night as he did on Tuesday, when he was -27, and then follow it up with his 2nd highest point total of the year on Saturday with 28 points, when he was also +13 on the court, his 5th best +/- of the year. Wiggins embodies the Heat's up-and-down nature as a whole."
Prior to Christmas, the Miami Heat looked lifeless and suffered emblematic lapses such as Andrew Wiggins' -27 versus Toronto. Through three quarters against Indiana the Heat struggled against a six-win team before Wiggins' strong performance helped them pull away for a 142-116 victory. Wiggins scored 28 and is having a career year in three-point shooting (39.8%) with his highest overall field goal percentage and a high block pace. He is attempting far fewer free throws and averages 16.4 points, his second-lowest season scoring average. Teammates Nikola Jovic and Jaime Jaquez Jr. have shown recent improvement, reflecting Miami's inconsistent play.
