His performance has improved a lot since he entered the starting lineup! The Thunder wing general is in pretty good shape this season.

In the previous NBA regular season, the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder once again defeated the Indiana Pacers at home 141-135 after a hard-fought double overtime. After this game, the Thunder won two consecutive games since the start of the new season, with a current record of 2 wins and 0 losses, while the Pacers suffered their first loss since the start of the new season, with a current record of 0 wins and 1 loss.

In this game, the performance of Thunder's starting wing general Aaron Wiggins is still very stable. Wiggins played for 35 minutes and 45 seconds, making 7 of 14 shots, 5 of 9 from beyond the three-point line, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 23 points, 9 rebounds, and 1 block. He also had 1 turnover and 4 fouls, with a plus-minus of +8. Wiggins also maintained excellent offensive efficiency on the offensive end. He has rich offensive methods, comprehensive scoring ability, and extremely stable outside shooting. He also scored a lot of points through various methods, providing a lot of help and support to the team. Wiggins also performs well on the defensive end. He does a very good job in rebound protection, and he also has a high defensive enthusiasm. Overall, Wiggins played a key role on both offense and defense. This is also an important factor in the team's ability to defeat its opponents even when many important rotation players are absent.

In the NBA regular season last season, Wiggins played a total of 76 times in 82 games, averaging 22.9 minutes per game. He averaged 12 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.2 blocks per game. He also had 0.9 turnovers and 1.1 fouls. He shot 48.8% from the field, 38.3% from the three-point range, and 83.1% from the free throw line. In the playoffs, Wiggins played a total of 22 times, averaging 13.8 minutes per game. He averaged 6 points, 2.3 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.5 steals, and 0.3 blocks per game. He also had 0.8 turnovers and 1 foul. He shot 39.5% from the field, 36.2% from the three-point range, and 76.5% from the free throw line. In the previous NBA preseason, Wiggins played a total of 5 times, averaging 23.8 minutes per game, averaging 10.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.6 blocks per game. He also had 2.4 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. He shot 38.2% from the field, 25% from the three-point range, and 83.3% from the free throw line.

Wiggins' performance in last season's playoffs and previous preseason games was not ideal. His offensive characteristics and the stability of his outside shooting were not fully utilized. However, in the previous opener when the Thunder defeated the Rockets in double overtime, Wiggins' performance was quite good. In 20 minutes and 32 seconds of playing time, he made 4 of 8 shots and 2 of 5 from beyond the three-point line. He scored 10 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. He also had 1 turnover and 1 foul, with a plus-minus of +2. In this game, Wiggins went a step further, giving full play to his characteristics in all aspects while getting more playing time and shooting opportunities. I don’t know if Wiggins can maintain this level in the next games. If he can do this, then with the return of several important rotation players, the competitiveness of the Thunder’s second lineup will be further improved.
