Talking about this decision, Andrew Wiggins said, “They wanted a long-term commitment. Right now, (my priority) is for the Golden State Warriors. I got kids. I got family. I got a life outside of basketball,” Wiggins said.“So, to commit three years to the Warriors and to Canada Basketball, wouldn't make sense to me. … I spend the whole time in-season with the Warriors, and in summertime, I get to decide.”
