He could go to North Dakota State and become the #1 draft pick. What an absurd talent.

If he gets a consistent jumpshot, my lord, sky is the limit. Athleticism and and agility are as good as any player in the nba right now. He still has alot to learn, tighten his handle, and improve his jumper and he will be as good as he wants to be.

  During the junior national team camp they measured his vertical to be 44 inches.

I’d watched Wiggings highlights in the past but my jaw dropped for some of those, can’t wait for this kid to get to college/pros. Look for Canada to be in the Olympics in 2016 with the amount of young talent coming from there these days.

He definetly has some crazy hops!
But to be honest, I’m from Germany and haven’t seen him before. I really hope he has a little bit more to offer than what you can see in the video above. Like most of this vids all you can see are guys dunk it hard. You can see like 4 jumpers and a buzzer beater alonog with this one spin move to the basket. I don’t deny his talent because there has to be a reason why everyone goes crazy about a 17 year old but this video above could be a gerald green video to. All i can see is that this guy can jump like crazy.
I’m really excited to see more from him but this kind of clips seem to be made by his 17 year old classmates. I would really like to see more scouting videos and a little bit more fundamentals. Want to see him moving without the ball, maybe running a set play or playing defense.
It’s no surprise at all to have this hype about guys like him when all you can see is him rising above everyone.
But in the end a really intriguing prospect and I see the glimpses of why he is #1 in the 2014 mock draft. Makes me hungry for more.

  He was always an extremely gifted athlete, but the reasons why he has skyrocketed in stature are because he has become more aggressive and has improved his skill level. He can still disappear for stretches, but that is less of an issue than it was prior to this summer. He always had the superstar potential, but this summer he has flashed the mentality of a superstar as well, trying to take over games and taking on big challenges (like his battle vs J.Randle). Andrew still needs to polish up on his ball skills as he can still be loose with his handle among other things, but he’s shown enough progress in those areas to say that he’ll continue to improve. IOW, he’s a kid who doesn’t seem satisfied with just being the #1 ranked player in his class.

you’re insane ^ could you not tell from the spin moves, the crossovers, plus the mean streak (all at 6’8” and 16 years old) that he’s gonna be pretty damn special?

  Once his mid range and handles become more consistent the sky is the limit. Also he’s actually 17 He’s the same age as most Srs and older than a couple (Jabari Parker)

World class athleticism with a beastly game, he has superstar potential and if he continues to develop like he should then it is OVAA
I hope he becomes the next great Canadian NBA super star
