Recent news of Wiggins' refusal to vaccinate has sparked a heated discussion on social media, because it is no longer his personal business. According to the San Francisco Department of Health's epidemic prevention regulations, if Wiggins is not fully vaccinated, he will not be able to play in the Warriors' 41 home games in the new season, on the one hand, he will face a loss of $385,000 per game, on the other hand, the Warriors will lose an important starter, and the record will inevitably be affected.
However, despite the criticism from the outside world, Wiggins was not at all moved, and when a reporter on the media day asked him about the vaccine, Wiggins directly said, "That's my problem, it's not your business." "I wouldn't ask such a question.
The horn of the new season is about to blow, but the team has such a situation, and the Warriors are very troubled internally. Curry bluntly said that it is difficult when Wiggins currently refuses to vaccinate, hoping that Wiggins will receive the right information and have access to the right resources before making a decision.
Head coach Kerr is very strong support for vaccination, Kerr said: "It's been a year and a half since the epidemic entered the world, there are still people dying, there are still people getting sick, no matter what the experts suggest, I will follow it." I'm not an expert in this area, so I'll abide by the findings in this area. ”
This is the logic of normal people's thinking, the NBA has 90% of the players vaccinated, as for the referee, coach, data group, and all those who may be in close contact with the players on and off the court, they are required to be fully vaccinated. When everyone around you has been vaccinated, and you are the only one who has not been vaccinated, and you are still persuading others to do some investigation, it is already obvious what is right and wrong.
NBA celebrity A-Smith directly suggested that the Warriors trade Wiggins, and the famous Jabbar also stood up to denounce the players who refused to be vaccinated, believing that they were too arrogant and selfish, disregarding the safety and health of others, and should be removed from the NBA.
However, the words of NBA spokesman Mike Bass today may reverse Wiggins' comments.
NBA spokesman Mike Bass said players who missed games because not vaccinating violated local vaccination rules would not be paid accordingly, Shams reported. Salary expert Bobby Marks interpreted this, if the league punishes missing players, it will affect the amount of the team's luxury tax, and if the team fine will not affect.
Take Wiggins, for example, who will lose $385,000 if he misses a game in the new season because he is unvaccinated, and the Warriors will save nearly $1 million in luxury taxes. If Wiggins misses all of the Warriors' 41 home games, his personal loss will be about $16 million, and the Warriors will save about $41 million in luxury taxes.
In this regard, many fans have ridiculed that The pattern of Wiggins has suddenly become bigger, and it is a windfall for the boss Lacob.
