    Default Will Wiggins ever be a 26ppg scorer?

    this is the only question we need to ask right now

    wiggins averaged 17 in college, can that translate to 26 in the league?

    we are basically valuing wiggins potential againt current Love

    love is 26,12 and 4

    while wiggins is MUCH better defensively, the difference between wiggins and love defensively is negated by Love's rebounding and passing advantage

    So much better rebounding and passing = much better defense

    so the only thing left to look at is ppg

    Love is at 26, can wiggins reach it?

    imo no, considering wiggins is still unpolished and cant create his shot

    If Paul George "the next superstar" cant even crack 24, what chance does wiggins?

    heck 26 is only 1 ppg less than "scoring machine" Carmelo and LeBron

    imo current love > prime wiggins

    Love shot better from the field, 3p line, and averaged more APG than Wiggins, all in less MPG and 5 less shots per game.

    people are forgetting love got MUCH better once he was in the league

    Rookie year dude was like 13/7

    then he lost 20 pounds, got quicker, got a deadly jumper and turned into a beast

    can you guys envision wiggins improving by that much?

    considering people like yourself say:

    -no handle
    -no shot
    -no passing ability
    -no killer instinct

    I'd say yeah, he has even more room to improve.

    are you asking for a prediction?

    Kevin Love had the same stats and dropped weight and magically scored 9 more ppg.

    Wiggins can improve on so many facets of his game, that actually makes his ceiling higher.

    Literally a day ago you were trashing Kevin Love and saying you wouldn't mind if the Cavs kept Wiggins.

    26 ppg on a bottom feeder team is worth nothing, if we were talking 30+ then maybe... wiggins on the wolves as a rookie would average 20+ easily
