Recently, Heat coach Spoel talked about Wiggins in an interview.

Spoel said: "I think as he gradually adapts to the team, he still has a lot of room for growth. He has settled in Miami after joining the Warriors on the trade deadline and is ready to bring his family back. He stays here to adapt most of the time in August and September, and I think that's very important for him. Switching teams in the middle of the season is not easy. But you can see his potential on both ends of the offense and defense - he is extremely dynamic in the defense and can defend multiple positions in our system; the offense has a unique skill package, which is a reliable end point."

Last season, Wiggins played 17 games for the Heat, averaging 19 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, shooting 45.8% from the field and 36% from three-pointers.
