The Golden State Warriors are now one win away from winning the NBA title, after beating the Boston Celtics 94-104 in Game 5.
Andrew Wiggins was the MVP of the game, finishing with a team-high 26 points and 13 rebounds.
As expected, Wiggins was trending on Twitter, with fans, media members, and NBA players praising him for his performance.
Wait a second: Is it possible Andrew Wiggins is going to pull a 2015 Iggy and win Finals MVP out from under Steph?

Raise your hand if you were not on board with Wiggins being an all star starter and still don’t fully agree but are certainly a little more understanding lol pic.twitter.com/fdJaLxZVpl

Wiggins outplaying Tatum in the NBA Finals wasn’t something I expected either.

This Wiggins game is just massive, given the circumstances. One that’ll largely be forgotten if GSW wins the title, and Steph wins MVP. But probably the one that swings the series.

Wiggs is making the game look easy. He’s not forcing anything. He’s letting the game come to him but he’s still being aggressive!

Wiggins really got this game on lock!!

Andrew Wiggins is officially in the MVP conservation. It’s Steph’s to lose, but Wiggins has been that good.
