Tallies 23 points off bench
Sandfort ended with 23 points (9-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 135-103 loss to Phoenix.
Analyse
Sandfort saw extended action with several regular contributors for Oklahoma City inactive and made the most of the opportunity, knocking down five triples and eclipsing the 20-point mark. The Iowa product will close the regular season averaging 8.8 points and 2.5 rebounds in 15.8 minutes across four NBA appearances.

Career-high 28 minutes
Sandfort finished Friday's 127-107 loss to the Nuggets with eight points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and four rebounds in 28 minutes.
Analyse
With Oklahoma City basically giving everyone the night off, Sandfort found himself in a favorable situation. Having played just seven total minutes all season, it's safe to assume that Sandfort will be pinching himself after moving into what ended up being a starter-level role. Should the Thunder opt to rest players again Sunday, look for Sandfort to remain a key piece of the rotation.
