Warriors Star Unexpectedly Added to Injury Report for Game 6 vs. Lakers
Golden State Warriors star Andrew Wiggins has unexpectedly been added to the injury report for Game 6 vs. the Los Angeles Lakers. It is a left costal cartilage fracture for Wiggins, which is an area of the rib cage, and he is officially being listed as questionable for Game 6.
This is massive news, as Wiggins is coming off of his best game of the postseason in Game 5. Finishing with 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists on 10/18 from the field, Wiggins was a massive reason why the Warriors were able to extend the series and force a Game 6 in Los Angeles. Now with a left costal cartilage fracture, Wiggins' Game 6 status is in question.
The Warriors are attempting to pull-off an incredibly improbable 3-1 comeback, and they will need all hands on deck in order to do so. Their chances of completing the comeback would be significantly diminished without Wiggins, as he provides a ton for them on both ends of the ball.
This will be a story to follow over the next 24 hours, as updates on Wiggins and his status will likely be frequent in between now and tip-off. The questionable listing leaves the possibility open for Wiggins to play through the injury, but this is certainly a concerning update to get just one day before Game 6.
