Andrew Wiggins' Girlfriend Reacts to Rumors About Absence

Golden State Warriors are still without Andrew Wiggins

The Golden State Warriors have been intentional to protect their teammate Andrew Wiggins as he remains away from the team for personal reasons. No leaks have come out regarding the reason for his absence, but Marcus Thompson of The Athletic reported that one anonymous Warriors player said, "What he's dealing with is some real (expletive)."

There have been unreliable rumors circulating on Twitter about the reason for Wiggins' absence, none of which have any basis. It's incredibly unfortunate that the rumors picked up any steam to begin with, but they became loud enough that Wiggins' girlfriend Mychal Johnson addressed them on Twitter with multiple Tweets:

The internet is really a sick place🤮

Literally the farthest thing from the truth. It’s sad y’all even doing this.

In an era of social media where fans feel entitled to information on the personal lives of players, it has become far too common for blatant lies to spread around when no actual information is available. That seems to be exactly what has occurred with Andrew Wiggins and his family, as the Warriors forward continues to miss time for what has been described as a family matter.

Wiggins has gotten public and private support from his teammates and coaches, as they all want what is best for him and his family, even if that means missing even more time. Some things are bigger than basketball, and while nobody knows exactly what's going on with Wiggins, it's clearly something serious.
