Sun Apr 20 17:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Thunder Bench Wiggins for Game 1 Against Grizzlies
**OKLAHOMA CITY –** Oklahoma City Thunder guard Jalen Wiggins will come off the bench for Game 1 of their Western Conference Quarterfinal series against the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday, according to DailyThunder.com’s Brandon Rahbar.
Despite a strong finish to the regular season, where Wiggins averaged over 26 points in his final three starts, Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault has opted to retain the team’s usual starting lineup for the playoff opener. The decision sees Wiggins return to a reserve role, despite his recent hot streak. The Thunder will look to their established starters to lead the charge as the postseason begins.
