Interesting from The Athletic's Warrior's site on fit of Wiseman. The point is the way they play, they may not ever fully develop the young big. He's got potential to be a star, but all GS wants from it's bigs is not much more than what the Mav's used to ask Powell to do. They talk about Wiseman's thirst to score (he's not a passive big at all). Kerr moved him to the bench in January at least partially to let him be more of a focal point when he's in the game.
"Meanwhile, James Wiseman has this incredible talent at an uncommon size. He wants to show it off and frequently does. Right now, per 36 minutes, Wiseman is averaging 21.3 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.2 blocks on 51/41/64 shooting. The main reason we’re citing “per 36 minutes” here is because this impressive individual stat line has not exactly corresponded to the level of team success that ensures the minutes load of a starter."
