NBA Comparison: N/A

Kevin Duffy – 9/1/2007

Strengths: Lightning-quick point guard with tremendous athleticism. Wiggins is usually the fastest player on the court, and at the generous listing of 61 (hes closer to 510) is capable of throwing down a windmill dunk Uses his good handle and quickness to get his defender on their heels and stop on a dime to hit a pull-up jumpshot Is a pesky defender who plays with a very high motor Can put up points in a hurry Though hes prone to turnovers, Wiggins possesses very good instincts and court awareness.

Weaknesses: Tries to do too much. Has a tendency to overpass once he puts the ball on the floor. Wiggins often forces passes to unsuspecting big men after driving by his defender Doesnt have textbook form on his jumpshot, which can lead to some inconsistent streaks of shooting His lack of height and strength will hurt him on both ends but especially defensively against bigger guards … Needs to improve his decision making and learn when to change gears as he sometimes commits turnovers because he is playing so fast all the time. Wiggins is just a sophomore and should be at UConn until his senior year. He will have plenty of time to work out the kinks in his game.
