The Golden State Warriors got some disappointing news on the injury front when word broke that rookie James Wiseman suffered a torn meniscus and will likely miss the rest of the season.
Wiseman was selected No. 2 overall at the 2020 NBA Draft and is averaging 11.5 points and 5.8 rebounds in 21.4 minutes per game. The 20-year-old’s per 36 minutes stats are at 19.3 points and 9.7 rebounds.
It’s been an up-and-down rookie season for Wiseman. He missed three weeks in February with a wrist injury and was out of the lineup for three games last month due to the NBA’s health and safety protocols.
