In fact, Kerr said“I think defensive recognition of patterns and rebounding, that’s what we can use from him the most. Going forward, with his talent, with his size and athleticism, there’s no reason why he can’t be a dominant defensive player in the league” in a press conference along with Warriors’ president Bob Myers about Wiseman skill-set.

So after playing three G League games for the Santa Cruz Warriors earlier this yearin which Wiseman averaged 17.3 points and 9.7 rebounds, he didn’t playor train due to aswelling in his right knee. Therefore, the fact that Wiseman is really close to a fresh start isencouraging for the Dub Nation.
