Wiseman tore his meniscus after playing just 39 games in his 2020-21 rookie season. The 21-year-old then missed the entirety of the 2021-22 season after experiencing multiple setbacks.
According to Charania's report, Wiseman and Warriors general manager Bob Myers traveled to London in April, where the former No. 2 pick received orthobiologic injections, a treatment that promotes healing throughout the body.

On the bench for each of the Warriors' playoff games, Wiseman recently was seen getting shots up prior to Game 3 of the NBA Finals at TD Garden.
If the young center is able to play in the Summer League, he is expected to be joined by rookies Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody, who are expected to play at some point following Golden State's Finals run.
