LAS VEGAS – Seconds into Golden State’s Summer League game against San Antonio, the Warriors saw exactly what they hoped for: James Wiseman, the 2020 No. 2 overall pick, corralling an alley-oop pass from Jonathan Kuminga and slamming it home. It was Wiseman’s first NBA bucket in more than a year and a reminder that for Golden State, the defending NBA champs, the best could be yet to come.
Wiseman’s final stat line on Sunday: 11 points, two rebounds in a shade under 20 minutes. He made five of his seven shots. He knocked down a three.
