Andrew Wiggins coolly handles pressure of being country’s top basketball prospect
Posted Dec 11, 2012
Last year, Andrew Wiggins moved from Canada to play at Huntington Prep, a basketball academy known for its national schedule and heavy recruiting. Expectations have only swelled since then, with Wiggins hastening the hysteria by reclassifying from a junior to senior this past summer and reportedly cutting his college list to Florida State, Kansas, Kentucky and North Carolina. “I know people expect a lot from me and want to see certain things when I play, but it’s not really any pressure for me,” said Wiggins.
