The Golden State Warriors are making things work as they try to solidify their position for this year’s upcoming playoffs. Golden State has won its last three games, pushing its season record to 39-36. The Warriors stand as the sixth seed in the Western Conference, but without Andrew Wiggins in the starting lineup. And as the NBA world loses sleep over Wiggins’ future, his girlfriend apparently enjoys the attention.

Andrew Wiggins has been away from the team for over a month now. The whole Warriors organization has been awfully tight-lipped about the reason why Wiggins chose to take time off basketball. Although his absence is clearly felt with the team often struggling on defense, the Warriors fans are hoping things get better soon for the 28-year-old.

Since fans did not get any explanation from his team members or the organization, speculations started flying around. Mainly of how Andrew Wiggins’ girlfriend Mychal Johnson had an affair with Wiggins’ best friend.

And the reason why the Warriors forward was not with the team is that he was looking after a child that wasn’t even his. As the chatter around the couple increased, Mychal had to intervene and shut down all the baseless rumors.

However, with the attention she has been receiving, Johnson seems to be enjoying every second of it. She recently tweeted, “I love that my tweets are being watched.” Meanwhile, fans are still worried about the situation surrounding Wiggins.

The Warriors in the past few weeks

The Golden State Warriors surely have struggled this year in terms of their position in the Western Conference from last year. The team has been hit with adversity ever since the season started. Warriors star players Draymond Green and Klay Thompson were both doubted in terms of their performance. As for Stephen Curry, fans had given up hope after he went down with an injury last month.

However, some signs of life were displayed by the rest of the team, including players like Jordan Poole, Donte DiVincenzo, and Jonathan Kuminga, to name a few. This goes to show that the Warriors’ future is in good hands.
