That means, even if the Warriors win out, their fate is largely out of their hands and more dependent on how the rest of the Wild West shakes out. “Just trying to get my feet right, get back into rhythm, but I know it’s going to take a little time, put in the extra work and I’ll be good.” Wiggins is expected to be at Tuesday’s home finale against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
