Warriors Rookie James Wiseman Sprained Left Wrist vs. Pistons

The Warriors announced that rookie center James Wiseman suffered a sprained left wrist in their win against the Pistons on Saturday and will be reevaluated in 7-10 days. There is no timetable for his return.

Wiseman suffered the injury when Draymond Green threw him a lob in transition and while in the midst of coming down with the ball for the dunk, Isaiah Stewart fouled him and Wiseman landed awkwardly on his wrist.
