ESPN will air the ping pong balls selection pick that will determine the pick selection order tonight at 7:30 p.m.   This will be a pivotal moment in NBA Thunder history.  Time:  7:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. on ESPN.

Are we feeling lucky; this will be much more agonizing (anticipation filled) than the recent coin flip the Thunder won.

Welcome to Oklahoma!


Age: 22 -  6' 6' -  190 lbs Shooting Guard
Maryland's Aaron Wiggins picked No. 55 overall by Oklahoma City Thunder in second round of 2021 NBA draft

Has a nice shooting touch, can make shots off the bounce or spotting up from 3-point range (35% 3FG as a Jr.) with decent success ... Also effective attacking close outs, can stick 1 or 2 dribble pull-up jumpers going in either direction when chased off the 3-point line ... Gets his fair share of points by being a good cutter to open spots on the court too, showing his on-court awareness ... Adequate ball-handler, mostly prefers to go north and south but does use basic
