The Golden State Warriors might miss Andrew Wiggins at the start of the season
and beyond, for an unprecedented reason. 一個全新的因素可能會導致金州勇士隊在
新賽季的開始，甚至往後的比賽都沒有Andrew Wiggins。

The Warriors are worried that San Francisco vaccine mandates and the NBA's dec
ision to follow local protocols could lead to Wiggins, who has refused to get
vaccinated, missing games, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
根據《舊金山紀事報》的報導，金州勇士擔心舊金山當局的疫苗規範，以及NBA官方的指
示，可能會導致拒絕接種疫苗的Wiggins缺席比賽。

The Chronicle reports that there is a belief Wiggins will be granted a religio
us exemption from the NBA, but the San Francisco city government has the power
to override that exemption. The San Francisco Department of Public Health tol
d the Chronicle it would not comment unless Wiggins is granted that exemption:

《紀事報》指出，因為宗教因素，NBA或許會對Wiggins網開一面，然而舊金山的當局有權
推翻這項決議。舊金山公共衛生部告訴《紀事報》說，除非Wiggins已經獲得豁免，否則
不會對此發表評論。

“We are actively addressing the matter of requests for religious exemption fr
om vaccinations across many industries and will work with our business and ent
ertainment community on next steps,” the San Francisco Department of Public H
ealth said in a statement. “We will provide further clarification on this top
ic.”
舊金山公共衛生部在一份聲明中表示：「我們正在著手解決許多行業因為宗教因素而拒絕
接受疫苗的豁免問題，並將與商界與娛樂界共同跨出下一步。」 「我們將會對這個話題
提出進一步的澄清。」

The NBA informed teams earlier this month that they will have to follow local
vaccine laws. Only two league cities had such laws requiring all employees to
be vaccinated for large indoor events: San Francisco and New York City.
NBA官方在本月初通知球隊，他們必須遵守當地的疫苗規範。而其中，只有兩座擁有球隊
的城市，要求所有的員工都必須為大型室內活動接種疫苗：舊金山、紐約市。

If Wiggins does not get vaccinated, he will not be allowed to participate in W
arriors home games. That would be a loss for Golden State, who had the former
No. 1 overall pick average 18.6 points and 4.9 rebounds while shooting a caree
r-best 47.7 percent from the field (38.0 percent from deep).
倘若Wiggins真的不接種疫苗，勇士主場的球賽他將無法順利參加。這對勇士來說會是一
項損失，畢竟這位前狀元場均有18.6分、4.9籃板，而投籃命中率來到生涯最高的47.7%（
三分球則為38%）。

One person who might have thoughts on Wiggins' decision: his former Minnesota
Timberwolves teammate Karl-Anthony Towns, who has lost more than a half-dozen
family members to COVID-19, including his mother and has publicly denounced pe
ople who are refusing to get vaccinated.
其中一個會對Wiggins的行為有異議的可能就是他在迷尼蘇達灰狼隊的前隊友──Karl-An
thony Towns，他已經因為COVID-19失去了6個以上的親人，包括他的母親。而他也曾經公
開譴責那些拒絕接種疫苗的人。

Nets could also miss some players The Brooklyn Nets and the New York Knicks ar
e the only other NBA teams affected by local vaccine mandates when it comes to
players. 而籃網隊也會損失掉一些球員。布魯克林籃網隊與紐約尼克隊是除了金州勇士
隊以外，受到當地疫苗規範影響的球隊。

Nets general manager Sean Marks told reporters Tuesday that "a couple" of play
ers would not be able to play for the team if they had a game that day due to
the New York City vaccine mandate. However, he also said he expected that situ
ation to resolve by the beginning of the season. The Warriors might have the s
ame confidence in Wiggins.
籃網隊總經理Seam Marks在週二時告訴記者「如果我們有主場的比賽，當天將有兩位球員
因為紐約當局的疫苗政策，而無法為球隊出賽。」 然而他也表示，他預計這種情況在賽
季初期就會迎刃而解。勇士隊或許也對Wiggins的狀況抱持著同樣的信心。

Outside of the players, who have no league-wide vaccine mandate, just about ev
ery person on an NBA court this season will be vaccinated. The NBA has require
d all coaches, front office and medical staff, security, team communications s
taff, scorer's table staff and officials to get the vaccine.
除了球員不會被聯盟強制要求接種疫苗之外，本賽季 NBA 球場上的幾乎每個人都將接種
疫苗。NBA 已要求所有教練、前台和醫務人員、保安、球隊通訊人員、記分台工作人員和
裁判接種疫苗。
