Aggressive drive. But needs to secure the ball better.

Kansas PG is really bad. Making all of the wrong passes. Picks up his dribble. Pretty sad that a Bill Self coached team can't beat a zone.

Wiggins with two aggressive dribble drives. First one he got fouled (non-shooting), second one called for a charge.

This is the most aggressive I've seen him so far this season.

Wiggins so smooth. D-Wade finish with the windmill.

Damn sweet Eurostep by Kasey Hill, but Wiggins got up to get the block.

Brilliant drive by Wiggins in transition.

Kansas still getting outhustled and playing a bit out of control.

I like what I'm seeing from Wiggins but everything else for Kansas is bad. Bigs look disinterested and the guard play is about as bad as it gets.

I think he was more aggressive against Colorado, still got another half to play though.

I watched the whole Colorado game (even made a scouting video :D) and he's been more aggressive tonight, in the half court. I'm not talking about transition, strictly about seeing if he can create in the halfcourt.

Wiggins makes the final shot of the half. He's really pressing.

I think you're right, he's definitely taken more shots so far and has been better on the boards. I'll attribute that to him having time to recover from that nasty cold/flu bug he had (he was still sick last thursday)

and on that note he closes off the half with a nice mid-range jumper. 8 points and 5 boards (maybe 6) 2 blocks

Wiggins actually looks really good despite how bad Kansas is right now.

First game back for Kasey Hill and he's already looking sharp.
