Andrew Wiggins: 'Don't think it will be long' before return

SAN FRANCISCO -- As Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins returns to his team after a 51-day absence, he hopes his return to the basketball court will follow soon after.

"I don't think it will be too long before I am out there," Wiggins said in his first time speaking to reporters since leaving the team on Feb. 13.

Wiggins missed 22 games during his time away from the team as he dealt with a family matter involving an ill family member. He declined to comment on the specifics of the situation.

"I'd rather keep it private," he said.
