Golden State Warriors Steve Kerr is optimistic Andrew Wiggins will play again this season ... saying Tuesday night there's "hope" the All-Star forward can rejoin the Warriors in the near future.

Getty "Beyond that, once he's back, our training staff will be able to get with him and see where he is," Kerr said Tuesday. "He's been training on his own." Kerr hesitated to label Wiggins' extended absence from the team as "indefinite" ... but said because his status remains uncertain, "it's also appropriate because we don't know."

‘Vanderpump Rules’ Raquel Leviss Restraining Order Against Scheana Shay Dismissed
Getty UPDATE 9:52 AM PT -- Scheana Shay 's attorney Neama Rahmani tells us, "This isn’t reality TV. This is the real world and Rachel’s actions have real consequences.

We were prepared to expose Rachel’s lies, but instead she will have to live knowing that she betrayed two of her best friends: Scheana and Ariana. Instead of accepting responsibility for her actions, Rachel shamefully tried to misuse our justice system to shift blame to Scheana. We are happy that Scheana is now vindicated.” UPDATE A … [Read more...] about ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Raquel Leviss Restraining Order Against Scheana Shay Dismissed
