wiggins has been very highly touted as the next LeBron type player and is extremely well known in the sports arena.

I don't have cable, much less ESPN. Not one of my friends gives two shits about the NBA and know I don't care in any case so don't talk to me about it.

There are very well known authors in the fantasy genre that you probably have never heard of. Or well known fund managers in the finance industry that every single one of my colleagues is well aware of but you would likely never have heard of.

We all think our little corner of life/interests is much wider than it is. I guarantee you most of my friends and family have never heard of Andrew Wiggins.

dude I was just responding as to why someone would find it odd, I wasn't attacking or trying to talk down to you in any way. I wasn't even agreeing with the guy just saying why someone might respond that way.

I would imagine that individuals posting on topic-specific message boards would generally know the popular individuals in that topic-area, let alone if that area is extremely popular.
