What is Mike Dunleavy Jr. doing? The trade market shuts down on Thursday. Almost all the teams in the league have picked their pieces, except the Dubs. Showing interest in Kevin Durant or Jimmy Butler isn’t enough. They need to make a move, and NOW! Besides, so many rumors are going around, that it’s becoming difficult to separate reality and speculations. Meanwhile, the Warriors head to Utah for a Wednesday clash. But wait, where is Andrew Wiggins?

The team has informed the fans that the Canadian basketball player is battling left hip soreness. However, don’t count him out just yet. The Warriors forward plans to suit up against Utah, pushing through the pain. With a back-to-back ahead, all eyes will be on how he holds up. Meanwhile, when this update dropped, the fans were too quick to check the Golden State Warriors Instagram handle. In a carousel of photos, there were players, like Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Moses Moody, and others. But Wiggins wasn’t there. Is he not flying with the team?

Recently, The Athletics’ Sam Amick, David Aldridge, and Anthony Slater reported on Tuesday, noting: “Both the Warriors and Suns have cluttered salary structures, but both ownership groups have shown a willingness to pay up for players they desire. The Warriors also have a potential path to help guide Butler to Phoenix, if they pull the trigger on an Andrew Wiggins-centric trade with Miami that has been discussed.”

Seeing the Warriors team plane without ‘Maple Jordan‘ might throw fans into a concerned frenzy. In the last few games, the 29-year-old power forward has been the beacon of hope for the team amidst their losses. He’s outperformed Steph Curry in a game or two, so his absence is sparking concerns within Dub Nation. They fear the injury update might be a distraction from something bigger.

Warriors fans worry about Andrew Wiggins after his injury update

One of the fans shared a screenshot of the injury report under the tweet. @Underdog_NBA reported: Andrew Wiggins (hip) is listed as probable for Wednesday. Well, it might be one of the ways of informing why Wiggs wasn’t flying with his teammates. The real question is: Will Dub Nation be convinced after the trade rumors run wild in the basketball community? The post also featured a caption that read, “He’s getting traded OMG.”

Meanwhile, another somebody gave their verdict and shared their feelings. They wrote: “Yea it’s a done deal let’s gooooo I’ll miss wigs tho.” Andrew Wiggins has been averaging 17.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game. With a 44.4 FG%, he has emerged as someone the fans and the team can lean on when needed. Thus to lose a player like him seems like a heartbreak.

“Don’t mind if is for KD,” a fan commented. Well, Kevin Durant is an ex-Warrior. So, it’ll be more like a homecoming for the 36-year-old Phoenix Suns star. The Dubs are eyeing Durant, which could impact any talks with the Suns and Heat. This also means, for the Heat, moving Butler for the Warriors’ power forward would end the recent drama. It would add a strong scorer on the wing. He could help in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
