Wiggins walked away from a scrimmage against his teammates Wednesday afternoon feeling “pretty good,” Kerr said, and the All-Star forward was an unrestricted participant in a relatively light team practice Thursday. He was seen afterwards putting up shots on the court with assistant coach Jama Mahlalela and teammate Moses Moody. Kerr said Wiggins, who returned from a seven-week hiatus earlier this week, will be under a microscope as he gradually ramps up his workload. “He’ll be getting more work in the next few days and the performance staff is monitoring everything,” Kerr said. “He told me this morning he feels pretty good and he’s on a good track.” The Warriors are taking a cautious approach in ramping up Wiggins for game action after ...Is Erik Karlsson nearing his last home game with the San Jose Sharks?
