NBA 2019-20: 5 Most interesting storylines of the current season

#4 Andrew Wiggins' incredible turnaround

Andrew Wiggins has enjoyed a resurgent start to the season following the worst year of his career

After being selected first in the 2014 NBA draft, Andrew Wiggins went on to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award - and the Toronto native continued to improve over the next two seasons. However, Wiggins' career has been on a downward slide since he signed a five-year, $148 million contract extension back in 2017, with many experts criticizing his effort and lack of interest.

After finishing the 2018-19 season with a 36-46 record, the Timberwolves reportedly explored trading Wiggins, although the 24-year-old has responded by making an incredible start to the season. Through 11 appearances, Wiggins is averaging career highs in points (25.6), rebounds (5.1), assists (3.6) and field goal percentage (47) - and his performances have helped the Timberwolves to a much better than expected 7-5 record.

After a series of highly questionable performances over the past two seasons, Wiggins' chance at superstardom no longer seems to have passed him by.

#3 Sophomore superstars

Luka Doncic has excelled in his sophomore season

Luka Doncic looked like a star during his first season in the league as he took home the Rookie of the Year award, although the 20-year-old's performances have taken a further leap so far this season. Through 11 games, Doncic is averaging 28.7 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 9.3 assists per game - and while the season is still young, the Slovenian is firmly in the MVP discussion.

Meanwhile, Trae Young has opened his second year averaging 27.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 9.1 assists, and earlier this week became the youngest player in NBA history to record 30 points and 10 assists in three consecutive games. Young and Doncic look like certainties to make the 2020 All-Star Game and the young duo are well on their way to establishing themselves as the NBA's next superstars.
