Andrew Wiggins is getting gassed up by one of his new teammates who knows a thing or two about the defensive end of the floor.
Speaking with reporters Wednesday, Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green said that he thinks Wiggins can make an All-Defensive team next year.

Green, a former Defensive Player of the Year and five-time All-Defensive team selection, knows the potential that the 24-year-old Wiggins has as a defender. Wiggins is 6-foot-7 with a seven-foot wingspan, near-elite athleticism, and good instincts but has often been criticized for a lack of effort on that end.
The ex-No. 1 overall pick has already praised the Warriors’ culture, and this could be the situation that finally inspires him to realize his defensive ceiling.
