ESPN sources revealed that following a two-month absence last season due to an undisclosed personal matter, Wiggins did not dedicate sufficient time during the summer to regain optimal fitness for the current season.

His lack of physical conditioning annoyed some within the organization, a team source added.

Wiggins currently holds the lowest effective field goal percentage on jumpers among players with at least 75 attempts, according to Second Spectrum.

Additionally, he ranks second-to-last in free throw percentage among qualified players, with only Aaron Gordon of the Denver Nuggets trailing behind.
