Golden States Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins accepted the COVID-19 vaccine after his request for religious exemption was denied last month and he would have been barred from playing home games if he didn’t get vaccinated.
Without a vaccine passport, Wiggins faced the possibility of not being able to enter the Golden State’s home building at Chase Center for games starting on Oct. 13 when the San Francisco Department of Public Health begins requiring proof of vaccination for large indoor events.
