Suggest add "Family" section to article[edit]

Mitchell Wiggins is married to Marita Payne, a former Olympic track star from Canada ^[1] and their child, Andrew Wiggins, is currently in middle school and only 13 but is already such a basketball phenom that he has been to the "scouts focus elite 80 showcase" (normally reserved for top high school seniors) and is being courted by college recruiters. Andrew Wiggins may also deserve his own page. ^[2] Fibonacci121 (talk) 07:51, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

back in late 80s or early 90s. mitchell wiggins was in champaign illinois during the summer while his wife i believe was doing some training for track. One day while playing at kenney gym, i took my man baseline. mitchell came over to block my swhot and i went over the top to dunk on him. it was the hi-lite of my basketball career that was cut extremely short due to injury and poor life decisions. i wonder if anyone else that was in the gym that day remembers.
