Warriors’ sophomore James Wiseman discusses his return, discloses what Stephen Curry said to him during the OKC game

The Golden State Warriors have a lot of positive outlooks to start the 2021-22 NBA season. The Warriors are off to a flying 5-1 start to their season. They still have 6 games left on their homestand, where they’d like to improve their season record even further. The Dubs have an excellent bench, and they’re getting great contributions from a lot of players. Despite Stephen Curry having a slow shooting start, they’re still finding ways to win.

The icing on the cake for the Warriors is the injury update on James Wiseman. The 2020 lottery pick has been out since April 2021, after suffering a right meniscal tear. He has been cleared for full-team practices.

Today, after the practice, Wiseman revealed what Curry had said to him. Apparently, Curry had come over to discuss a Kevon Looney play. There was a time where Looney got the ball right under the basket, and the Thunder managed to foul him before he could go up for an attempt. Steph wants Wiseman to take such passes, and go straight up for the dunk.
