Hope we can get him involved with the Canadian team, I fear he may go and play for the DR.

Nothing in his Bio screams out that he would want to play for Canada . He isn't a lock to for the Canadian national team but if he did choose DP he might be guaranteed a spot . I think gone are the days we have to search for any player and convince them to join the Canadian team instead of another country .

Weird ... Some websites I see he was born in Montreal and others Dominican_Republic ... Is he a late bloomer cause I feel if he somebody who can score in the NBA he must have or should have played on the Dominican_Republic under teams .
Durate should have a Canadian citizenship. So could play for Team Canada if he/we wanted (him) to.

I believe he was born in Montreal but was raised in the DR. He's only Canadian by birth. Like Vladdy Jr. from the Blue Jays.

Andrew Wiggins 35 pts 3 threes 4 rebs vs Wolves 21/22 season - YouTube
Andrew Wiggins has some monster dunks and a monster game against the team that traded him .. He always has some extra juice when he played the Cavs also and always loves playing against the Raps ..

(Be real nice if he didn’t have to rely on instances like that to consistently elevate his game though. … The greats find their own motivation, day in, day out.)
Your so right .. Although some players have the raw talent to do extraordinary things but don't have the motor or give a shit meter to use it all the time .. It was one of the knocks on him going into the draft . His desire wasn't always on the display .

GSW could make it to the Finals this year. It's not too late for a Wiggins redemption story.

And don't get me wrong, I'd love it if he could bottle that shit going forward.

2 years ago he dropped 15 on the Cavs and averaged 19.5 vs. Toronto, all below his season averages. Last year vs. the 3 teas listed he put up 19ppg vs. the Cavs, 16ppg vs. Toronto, he did have a little more juice vs. the Wolves at 23ppg with nice shooting splits.
I am happy he is back in the fold for Canada and know he will be a valuable part of any team success we have in the near future. At 26 years old we should see him for a while.Twitter @WJ_FINDLAY
