Mon Jul 8 2013 | 10:49 | DeAndre Liggins won't play on Monday |
DeAndre Liggins (rest) will not play in Monday's Summer League game. |
He scored just two points in 23 minutes on Sunday. Liggins' contract isn't guaranteed with the Thunder and he'll have to perform to earn a spot on the team. The Thunder committing to Jeremy Lamb a bit more doesn't help his cause, though. |

Tue Jun 4 2013 | 09:27 | DeAndre Liggins hopes to return to Thunder |
DeAndre Liggins is hoping to return to the Thunder next season. |
"I don't know if they want to bring me back," he said. "I would like to be in OKC." The team has an option worth less than $1 million to bring him back and it's not guaranteed, and beat writer Darnell Mayberry writes it would be "surprising" if Liggins didn't return to the team. |

Fri May 3 2013 | 10:14 | DeAndre Liggins surprised he's getting chance |
DeAndre Liggins is surprised he's getting a chance to contribute after the injury to Russell Westbrook. |
"I didn't know who coach was going to choose," Liggins said. "I was just ready; my job is just to stay ready," he added. Coach Scott Brooks said he likes what Liggins can provide and the swingman provides the team with "a little bit of balance." Liggins is intense on defense and OKC needs to badly improve on that end of the floor after multiple breakdowns in Game 5. |

He left the arena on Wednesday in a walking boot, so that was clearly just a precaution. Liggins will have no value while Kevin Martin is healthy. |

The Thunder are going to let him heal on Thursday and he may be re-evaluated in the coming days. He scored just two points in four minutes vs. Golden State and won't have much fantasy value while Kevin Martin is healthy. |

Sun Jan 13 2013 | 23:46 | DeAndre Liggins thrives in suprise SG start |
DeAndre Liggins made a start at SG in place of Thabo Sefolosha (neck) on Sunday, scoring 11 points with three 3-pointers, nine rebounds, two assists and one steal in 40 minutes. |
The start was a last-minute surprise and his heavy minutes were a shock, since he came in averaging 1.0 points in 13 games this season. It's nice to know that OKC has a capable backup waiting on the bench, but with Thabo day-to-day there's no reason to touch Liggins in average fantasy leagues. |

The Thunder have recalled DeAndre Liggins to join the team against the Hornets on Saturday. |
Liggins was with the Thunder a little over a week ago, but he had played just 11 minutes over the course of the whole season. He'll likely be headed back to the Tulsa 66ers very soon and has no fantasy value. |

DeAndre Liggins may have a leg up for the final roster spot with the Thunder. |
Beat writer Darnell Mayberry notes that Liggins "looks like the right man for the gig," and Scott Brooks has praised his defense as well as his effort on a consistent basis. Given that Thabo Sefolosha has dealt with a quad injury, it wouldn't be surprising to see Liggins stick around if he continues his current course. |

DeAndre Liggins will start at shooting guard for the Thunder on Tuesday night. |
James Harden (groin) and Thabo Sefolosha (quad) are both out, so Liggins gets a shot to share the floor with the first team. The Kentucky product was signed last month and has no fantasy value. |

Liggins played in 17 games last season for the Magic, averaging 1.9 ppg. The contract is most likely non-guaranteed and the athletic swingman will have a tough time making a talented Thunder roster out of training camp. |
