Timberwolves swingman Andrew Wiggins had a message for the fans after the team’s embarrassing 123-120 overtime loss to the Hawks at Target Center.
It was interesting that Wiggins chose to speak out in the first place, as he didn’t fare all that well in the game, scoring 16 points on 5-of-14 shooting, with six rebounds as well.
Still, he felt compelled to sneak in a jab at Timberwolves fans, as he was apparently not thrilled about the fact that he was booed after missing two free throws in the fourth quarter.
“That’s fans for you,” Wiggins said, via Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic. “We’ve got some s—-y fans and we’ve got some good fans. That’s just how it works.”
Wiggins was booed just over a minute into the fourth quarter, after he missed a pair of free throws. The Wolves had a 92-91 lead at the time, and Wiggins blew two chances to add to it.
Wiggins heard boos after missing 2 FTs. He’s 4-10.

Ripping the fans, especially after having a poor game, really isn’t a good look. Wiggins would’ve been better off taking responsibility and striving to do a better job in the future.
