With the Golden State Warriors winning the 2022 NBA Championship, Stephen Curry has been headlining the news as the Finals MVP. However, Andrew Wiggins is one player whose contributions have been slightly overlooked.
Apart from averaging a solid 18.3 points (2nd highest on the GSW), 8.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.5 blocks, the Maple Jordan played some incredible defense, putting Jayson Tatum on clamps all series long.
What a season for Andrew Wiggins:
— NBA champion
— All-Star starter
— 2nd best player on championship team
— Leads Finals in rebounds
— Best defender in the Finals pic.twitter.com/bNp2LvOrC9— StatMuse (@statmuse) June 17, 2022
Clearly, Wiggins has been a huge reason why Steph and co. won their 4th title in 8 years.

Hopefully, Wiggins and the GSW front office reach a mutual agreement this offseason and compete for a back-to-back championship in the upcoming season as well.
