LAS VEGAS, Nev. (WREG) — After more than a year away from the game, former Tiger James Wiseman returned during Vegas Summer League.
Wiseman finished with 11 points, 2 blocks for the Warriors in their 86-85 win over San Antonio.
“I feel good just to be out there with my teammates and just be grateful I’m out here like I haven’t played in a whole year and a half,” Wiseman told NBATV following the game. “So it’s kind of difficult for me out there, but I’m gonna get back to it.”
The No. 2 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft averaged 11.5 points and 5.8 rebounds in his rookie season with Golden State. He’s been recovering from a meniscus injury.
“I made a lot of mistakes tonight. I didn’t had a game that I wanted to have, but I mean, it’s all good my first game, so I was out there having fun.”
Wiseman and the Warriors take on the Nets Tuesday night.
