"I’m a little nervous, but actually, I am also excited you know? I try to play cool, calm and collected all the time, but excited to get there on the court, it’s finally happening. Patience is a virtue and we are finally here.”

Iguodala has been recovering from a lingering hip injury. He has said that the 2022-23 season will be his swan song in the NBA.

Iggy has four championship rings with the Dubs, and a Finals MVP. For his career, he's averaged 11.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.2 assists, while shooting 35.5% from three in the postseason.
