That’s some shitty thing to do by warriors
Maybe they have a trade lined up for him already but guy has 3 years left in deal, let him play for national team
Just bad vibes, shunning klay and now this
Wiggins was second best player in finals team in 2022 as well
Locked up Tatum when it mattered

Why would the warriors do this?
And Kerr said it was a mutual decision. lol mutual decision my ass
That’s really messed up
TRASH move by the Warriors. Shameful.
Can the Warriors actually do this?
If he actually wanted to play, then I don’t like that the Warriors held him out. It’s one thing if he wants to go bull riding, but he wants to fulfill a dream playing basketball in the Olympics.
Garbage shit by warriors
Surely NBA contracts don’t let teams prevent players representing their national team?
Edit: Just looked it up. A team can’t do anything to deter a player from representing their country so not sure what’s going on here.
Sounds like a job for the Players Association (maybe).
Broke the code.
That’s gotta basically kill any hope of salvaging that relationship
“My parents said I can’t go out tonight, ask them if you don’t believe me”
So why does Kerr let Curry play for USA. This some BS
In my culture, what the Warriors did is considered: “a dick move”
Isn’t Curry playing and Kerr the coach? LMAO
Wow in Soccer Fifa actually make sure clubs release players to their NT.
Steve Kerr is a liar
It’s funny how people cherry pick information to come to conclusions. As a dubs fan, I love Klay and Wiggins, but I have to say your tripping if you think the warriors have done either of them dirty over the last few years.
The warriors PAID Klay after a major injury. They were so loyal to him that they fucked with the development of their youth to try and make things work. Klay was offered the similar money as Dray and turned it down even though he was essentially Kyle Korver at this point in his career. Love Klay, but he can’t defend to save his life at this point in his career. Look at the numbers…

Wigg’s earned his paycheck in 2022 and has been a shell of himself ever since then. He continued to get paid even though he sat out due to whatever was happening in his life at the time. The franchise was more than supportive throughout the whole process. The NBA is a business… If a player has shown psychological and physical frailty over the last two seasons is it wise to allow them to play additional minutes outside of your organization? Fuuuuuuuuuuuck no. Bottom line… He has not earned the privilege to do so over the last few years because he’s failed to stay healthy and ready to play.
Lol bad vibes… Check your priorities. It’s a business, not a game.
If anybody is shitting on the warriors for their way of handling this, where were you when the warriors were coddling him like a child for the past 4 years while the entire nba world was shitting on him.
Warriors are looking to dump him. They don’t want him getting hurt.
And how checked out and lazy he’s gotten, the Warriors deserve to screw him back a little.
Might have something to do with Wiggins fucking off for the last couple years? I know his dad is sick but I’m guessing there’s not a lot for goodwill there
Warriors stood by this guy two seasons in a row when he had personal issues and needed to leave the team.
I get why you all say this and I normally would agree but Wiggins has got away with a lot of nonsense over the past couple of years, especially his work ethic.
He’s been taking contract money but not living up to it
I have a sneaky suspicion that if he hadn’t bailed on the team so frequently over the last couple years, they may have been more ok with him playing. Also, kinda goofy for Wiggins to gripe about this after the team basically enforced an omerta on discussing those times he disappeared.
“Shunning Klay” my ass. Dude is a prima donna who turned down a generous extension at the beginning of last season.
Couldn’t this be Wiggins not wanting to play, and the Warriors are covering for him?
This is all a Wiggins PR move to avoid him looking bad. He never wants to play for Canada. Throughout his entire career he has found every excuse not to play.
Canadian players will be taking notes. Pathetic decision from a franchise about to be bad for a decade anyway.
Obligatory fuck the Warriors
He could forgo his nba salary and play if he really really wanted to play
