It’s been a rollercoaster season for Wade Baldwin, thus far. In his preseason debut, he dropped 15 points on 5-for-5 shooting, looking like a more than capable backup point guard. He made the most of his official NBA debut. Wade Baldwin scored 7 points, grabbed 5 rebounds, dished out 6 dimes and had 3 steals and blocks, becoming the 1st player since 1983-84 to have a 5×3 in his NBA debut.
After that, he hasn’t been able to string together more solid performances. Wade Baldwin’s aggressiveness has led to poor defense and bone-head turnovers. Now that Andrew Harrison is leading the backup point guard race, Wade Baldwin will spend some time with the Iowa Energy in the D-League.
