Andrew Wiggins (MIN, StUd*) is balling his last two games: both without Jimmy Butler & Jamal Crawford in the lineup.
Last night, he topped his season-high (from the previous game) with 40! pts in a tight victory over the Clips. Wiggins was very aggressive with his J off the dribble, attacked every seam & mismatch available.
Is his production a direct result of more opportunities to score? Most definitely. But it's also an encouraging sign for Coach Tom Thibodeau's group to pick a W without Butler, who's been playing at an MVP level, & surviving a rough shooting night from Karl-Anthony Towns.
Wiggins is avg. 34.5 over his last two - hopefully he stays in full attack mode once Butler comes back.
