Andrew Wiggins scored 27 points on 10-of-17 shooting in the Golden State Warriors’ 116-109 home win over the Thunder on Jan. 29. He was then part of a five-team trade that landed him in Miami at the trade deadline Feb. 6 and sent Jimmy Butler to the Warriors.
Wiggins made his Heat debut in Monday’s 103-85 loss to the Boston Celtics, going just 3-of-12 from the floor with 11 points, five rebounds, and five assists.

The Thunder have won six consecutive games, with an average margin of victory of nearly 26 points per game. That includes Monday’s 137-101 win over New Orleans where the Thunder hit a franchise-record 27 3-pointers.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has scored 50 or more points on each of the last three Wednesdays: 54 points in a win over the Utah Jazz on Jan. 22, 52 points against the Warriors, and 50 points in last week’s win over the Phoenix Suns.
Wednesday’s game is the second and final meeting for these teams this regular season. Oklahoma City won the first matchup by a final score of 104-97 on Dec. 20 in Miami.
According to ESPN’s Basketball Power Index, the Heat hold an 87.2% chance of defeating the Thunder on the road. Miami is 8-4 in its past 12 meetings with Oklahoma City, while the Thunder have won seven straight games against an Eastern Conference opponent.
