Let’s get this out of the way: I’ve been as tough on Andrew Wiggins as any Blog Boy out there, from when he was first drafted, all the way up to and including the current season.
But I’m elated to acknowledge that Wiggins has arguably been the most consistently productive player on the Timberwolves roster through the first three games of the first round series against the Houston Rockets.
The per-game averages are nice: 17 points (second on the team), 6.3 rebounds (also second), and three assists (third on the team). He’s shooting 50 percent (20-of-40) from the floor and has knocked down 41.
