QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
• Warriors don't control their own destiny, but they don't need much help: If W's win final three games (a big if), and Pelicans lose at least one of four, then GS gets no worse than No. 6 seed. Lakers & Clippers play Wed, so one of them will reach 39+ losses. (Ron Kroichick)
• Andrew Wiggins is back with the Warriors. Bob Myers’ first comments, with Wiggs at podium pregame OKC: “Thank you for respecting Andrew’s life and privacy over the last six weeks.” (Kerith Burke)
• Myers says Wiggins' return to play is still fluid. Will be decided by the medical staff. (CJ Holmes)
• Myers: "Basketball is Andrew's job. It's my job. But it's not his life. It's not my life." (CJ Holmes)
• Andrew Wiggins on his conditioning: "Not terrible. I've been working out. ... I don't think it will be too long before I'm back." Said he's in a good headspace. Declined to share details about the family matter that forced him to miss 22 games. He won't play tonight against Oklahoma City. (Dalton Johnson, CJ Holmes)
• Wiggins on being in a safe place to return: “When you’re in a certain situation and your family needs you and requires your attention and your love, that’s my first priority. Family’s always first for me and it will always be that way…. we got everything settled, not fully settled, but in a safe place where I can come back.” (95.7 The Game, Janie McCauley, KNBR)
• Wiggins to Warriors fans: “Thank you for all the love and support through this difficult time I had. I appreciate it and you guys are the best fans in the world.” (KNBR)
• On the specifics of his family matter: “I'd rather just keep that private -- for me and my family, and the people close to the family that need to know.” (95.7 The Game)
• On watching the team from afar: “Every night they competed and they fought.” (KNBR)
• Myers on Wiggins: “They’re people, they have lives and family. I know that sounds obvious, but sometimes it get lost.” (95.7 The Game)
• Myers on the Warriors care about players as individuals beyond the court. Says throughout this he was just talking to Wiggins about how he’s doing: “This is a guy who’s made sacrifices for the organization… the uniform isn’t the most important thing to us who know him.”
