That’s A Rap #184: Talking Warriors dynasty and Maple Jordan

Andrew Wiggins is in a class of his own.

Every #1 overall pick can be bucketed into 3 groups: Hall-of-Fame (Current: Chris Webber or Future: LeBron James), All-Star (Current: Kyrie Irving or Future: Cade Cunningham), or Bust (Current: Anthony Bennett or Future: Chet Holmgren j/k). For most of his first seven seasons, Wiggins was really good, but ultimately met more of the criteria of a Bust.

With an outstanding two-way performance in the 2022 NBA Finals — and championship to boot — Wiggins becomes the first player (at least by my minimal research) to move up from Bust to All-Star level.
