Q: What is the stat Warriors fans should look at to determine if the Warriors’ culture is helping Andrew Wiggins succeed? – Erik Stern

Error 0:

There’s three statistical categories I would point to: field-goal percentage, free-throw attempts and steals.

A career 44.1% shooter, Wiggins was one of the more inefficient high-volume scorers in the league in Minnesota. Fans should want him to shoot around 48%, which is what Harrison Barnes averaged in his final season with the Warriors.
