Russell isn't going to take playing time from Steph when he returns and they're both similar, though obviously Steph is on another level. Wiggins is going to be 4th in the pecking order for GS, and the talent on the team will limit what is required of him and will surely make it easier for him.
Understated in all of this: expiring deal in Evan Turner. Two first round picks to play with this offseason. Salary table is pretty cleared out in the near term. Rosas managed to dump that bum Wiggins and his awful deal, add a top player, gut bad contracts, add a first round pick, and remake the roster with better, younger players at one deadline. I'm a bit amazed. It's the Wolves, so they'll screw it up, but this was like a video game level master stroke you don't see often in real life. This team went from utterly hopeless to having a lot of reasons to hope. That's god damn impressive.
