Thunder's Aaron Wiggins: Scores season-high 26 points

Wiggins finished Sunday's 121-118 victory over the Hornets with 26 points (11-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists and six steals across 36 minutes.

Wiggins moved to the starting lineup due to the absences of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (quad), Gordon Hayward (leg) and Jalen Williams (ankle). Wiggins took advantage of the opportunity by putting up his best scoring mark of the campaign. Wiggins has started four times over the Thunder's last seven games and has scored in double digits in each of those contests, so he could stay in the first unit if Oklahoma City remains shorthanded over the final week of the regular season.
