Warriors' Andrew Wiggins Regrets Getting Vaccinated Despite Title, All-Star Season

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins is coming off the best year of his career after earning his first All-Star selection and winning his first NBA title. However, Wiggins still has one regret from this season.

"I still wish I didn't get [vaccinated], to be honest with you," Wiggins told FanSided (h/t ESPN).

Wiggins faced the possibility of not being allowed to play in home games for the Warriors if he didn't take the COVID-19 vaccine because of local regulations. It was a similar situation to Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving, who appeared in just 29 games as the Nets finished seventh in the Eastern Conference and were swept in the first round of the playoffs.
