A smile filled Andrew Wiggins’ face as he sat on the baseline inside Scotiabank Arena, where he played for the first time since 2018. After all, there’s no place like home. “It feels good,” said the Golden State Warriors’ defensive stopper and third-leading scorer.

While Gary Payton II (left calf strain), Jonathan Kuminga (right ankle sprain) and Brandin Podziemski (right abdominal) remain sidelined, Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins are expected to return to the lineup on Monday for Golden State's contest in Toronto. Wiggins missed the last two games due to personal reasons.

Wiggins has never played against the Raptors in Toronto as a Warrior. In fact, the last time Wiggins played an NBA game in Toronto was in 2018. The only time between then and Monday he played against the Raptors on the road was when Toronto was playing its home games in Tampa, Florida because of the pandemic.
