Wiggins is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat due to a left knee contusion.
Wiggins is dealing with a bruised knee, so he might skip the first game in Atlanta's upcoming back-to-back set. If he's not able to give it a go, Corey Kispert would have a chance for some meaningful run in the rotation.

Hawks' Aaron Wiggins: Efficient scoring off bench
Rotowire
Wiggins notched 19 points (7-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), a rebound, an assist and two steals across 22 minutes off the bench in Friday's 128-81 win over the Hornets.
Wiggins tied Jalen Johnson for the team lead in scoring despite playing just 22 minutes, converting seven of his nine field-goal attempts. His efficiency was impressive, but the limited workload and modest peripheral production suggest his fantasy value could remain inconsistent. With Atlanta featuring several established offensive options, Wiggins may need to maintain strong shooting percentages to deliver meaningful fantasy production.

Hawks' Aaron Wiggins: Solid display off bench Friday
Rotowire
Wiggins delivered 19 points (6-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds and two assists across 22 minutes in Friday's 135-111 preseason win over the Mavericks.
Wiggins provided a significant offensive boost off Atlanta's bench, finishing as the team's third-leading scorer while connecting on four three-pointers. The forward also collected seven rebounds, the second-highest total on the team behind Jalen Johnson's 14, and posted an impressive plus-33 rating in just 22 minutes. Wiggins' scoring versatility and rebounding ability could make him a useful fantasy contributor if he earns consistent playing time.

Wiggins provided an efficient scoring contribution off the bench, knocking down three three-pointers while also contributing defensively with two steals, factors that contributed to a team-high plus-13. His combination of perimeter shooting and defensive activity will secure him a consistent role in Atlanta's rotation, but his role off the bench will limit his upside a bit.

Hawks' Aaron Wiggins: Headed to Atlanta
Rotowire
The Hawks acquired Wiggins from the Thunder on Sunday in exchange for 2030 and 2032 second-round draft picks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The No. 55 overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, Wiggins has spent the first five seasons of his career in Oklahoma City. The 27-year-old showed signs of promise during his tenure in Oklahoma City, but the Thunder's bevy of talent often resulted in him seeing inconsistent playing time. During the 2025-26 campaign, Wiggins posted averages of 9.4 points, 3.1 assists, 1.7 assists, 1.5 three-pointers and 0.9 steals in 21.8 minutes per contest over 65 regular-season appearances. Wiggins should have a chance at capturing a more sizable role in Atlanta, especially if the Hawks choose not to exercise Jonathan Kuminga's $24.3 million team option for the upcoming season.
