April 10. This was the date of his last official match James Wiseman. That was until the start of the 2022-2023 season, when the youngster from Memphis entered the court invested as an NBA champion and ready to start his career in full condition.
The player’s path 21 years It wasn’t easy to get to where you are now. He didn’t play in more than 3 games in his college career, his first major league campaign was spent in and out of the rotation due to physical issues, and his second was spent injured.
Almost two years after his election to draft number 2 Wiseman is ready to prove himself. Physically he is in excellent condition, which is already great news, but most notably, you can see a remarkable maturity in his game.
Something that was seen in the premiere with The Warriors won 123-109 over the Lakers and where the interior left its mark. With 8 points on 4 of 6 field goals, 7 rebounds (leading his own with JaMychal Green) and a block, the Warriors junior started the season off on the right foot. Only the asterisk from the free throw line (0 for 4) marred what could have been a perfect night for him.
“I’m very happy to be out there, running and playing again”emphasized the protagonist at the press conference after the meeting.
A game in which Wiseman worked flawlessly with the Golden State coaches in the instant lock. Curry, DiVincenzo and especially Poole sought him out time and time again to feed him and take advantage of his size. Some good feelings that inspire optimism in his second NBA season.
“He is very talented and works hard” Poole commented to his partner. “It’s just a matter of time before he realizes how good he can be.”

Beyond James Wiseman, the defending champs’ triumphant debut also helped provide clues as to how their secondary rotation might be articulated. A second section where the Warriors gossips will have a lot to say. This means that, along with the aforementioned interior, others like them Jonathan Kuminga or Moses Moody they are about to gain importance in Steve Kerr’s scheme.
Although it was not his most remarkable night Cuminga in attack (0 of 3), in defending He did a remarkable job in the 13 minutes he was on the floor, putting himself in the right position and adding intensity to the game. While moody compressed his playing time (7 minutes) to show that he can be the second microwave unit with 5 goals in 4 attempts.
In such a well-established core structure, with veteran roles and functioning leadership, the emergence of these three new figures is fantastic news for Warriors interests. Not so much with their mind in the playoffs, but in the regular season, because if they can be reliable and consistent, they will rest the important pieces in the big campaign ahead.
