We’ve been waiting for Wiggins to drop his two cents on the past events. If you’ve been living under a rock. Wiggins will play in Minnesota instead of Cleveland. And according to ESPN.com, Wiggins has recently talked to Kansas coach Bill Self apparently wishing he was traded to the T’Wolves.
When all this trade stuff started, I talked to Andrew and Andrew told me, ‘I hope I get traded,’” Self said. “And I’m like, ‘No you don’t.’ And he said, ‘Coach, I do. It’s better for me, knowing my personality and what I need to do, to go somewhere where I’m forced to be something as opposed to going in there where they’re going to be patient with me and I’m going to be a piece.’“
He may be young but Wiggins knows what’s good for him. If he really applies himself. He could possibly be the leader of the Timberwolves. The “leader” spot in Minnesota is vacant now that Kevin Love is going to Cleveland and I be dammed if Ricky Rubio is going to be the leader of that team. If I was Wiggins I’d stamp my authority immediately. He wanted to be traded. It happened. What next? The answer for Wiggins is dominate. Simple as that.
