Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins regrets getting the COVID-19 vaccine during the 2021-2022 season, despite later winning the NBA Championship and an All-star nomination, he said.

Wiggins expressed his regret this week during an interview with sports website FanSided.

"I still wish I didn't get [vaccinated], to be honest with you," the 27-year-old All-star told FanSided’s Mark Carman. "But you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do."

Wiggins admitted the season was the finest of his 8-year career and that he was only able to play under NBA guidelines and health safety regulations in the first place because he got vaccinated.

"I did it, and I was an All-Star this year and champion, so that was the good part, just not missing out on the year, the best year of my career," he said during the interview.

But he expressed caution about being "forced" by the NBA to receive the vaccine.

Wiggins added: "But for my body, I just don’t like putting all that stuff in my body, so I didn’t like that and I didn’t like that it wasn’t my choice. I didn’t like that it was either get this or don’t play."
