Western Conference coach: James Wiseman looking 'in over his head'
Making a trade this early in the season would seem like a drastic move, but according to a source who spoke with Deveney, Wiseman has looked “in over his head” so far this year. “He has looked [like he’s] in over his head,” one Western Conference coach told Heavy Sports. “You can’t have him on the floor with Draymond [Green] because they get real easy to guard with them together. And you can’t have him out there with a big role with the second unit because he is not good enough to carry that group. What do you do with him? I don’t think they know, so he is going to be down there (in the G League) because at least you know he will be on the floor.”

It didn’t matter what James Wiseman did in the fourth quarter of last night’s win. The Warriors had already decided a trip to Santa Cruz was what the 7-foot center needed.

More on this storyline
Inside the Warriors’ building, everyone is preaching belief in Wiseman. That’s coming from players and coaches alike. Outside the building, players aren’t fools. They know what’s said, they know what’s tweeted, they know what’s written. “The outside noise is what will make it tough,” Poole said. “It’s everybody’s opinion, everybody has something to say. Honestly, nobody cares what they think. James is just going to have to be laser-focused. I think that we know that he is more than anything. -via NBC Sports / November 15, 2022
