It's officially official. Andrew Wiggins is back.
Wiggins has been cleared to play in Game 1 of the Warriors' first-round playoff series against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday night, according to Shams Charania and Anthony Slater of The Athletic.
Coach Steve Kerr is reportedly leaning towards bringing Wiggins off the bench in a role that would see him get 20-25 minutes of playing time.
“Andrew looks great. Feeling good and is ready to go," Kerr said in his visit with the media earlier Thursday.
The news comes just one day after Warriors GM Bob Myers said on 95.7 The Game's 'Steiny and Guru' that "all indications are" pointing to Wiggins being back in the lineup for Game 1.
Wiggins returned to the team on April 4 after being gone since mid-February due to a family matter.
