On October 27th, Beijing time, Warriors star Andrew Wiggins was interviewed and talked about his salary cut and the Warriors’ contract renewal.
The Warriors and Wiggins previously reached an early contract extension, and the new contract between the two sides is 4 years and $109 million. Wiggins’s contract with the Warriors before the renewal was $33.61 million in the last year of the contract, and the new contract he reached with the Warriors, the annual salary in the first year was only $24.3 million, with a salary reduction of $9.31 million. With Wiggins’ performance in the playoffs last year, if Wiggins chooses to leave the Warriors to join other teams, the annual salary will far exceed this contract, but Wiggins finally chose to cut his salary to stay in the Warriors.
Talking about the new contract, Wiggins said: “I think the contract numbers are cool. You never know what’s going to happen in the future. I love it here, the Warriors have been good to me, this is a great team, it’s a team that wins all the time. The ball’s team. I don’t want to leave unless I have to.”
Wiggins said he wants to be a Warriors legend like Iguodala, Curry, Thompson and Dream Chaser.
