Ighodaro closed with two points (1-2 FG, 0-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one block in 32 minutes during Thursday's 101-96 win over the Hornets.

Ighodaro matched a season high in assists and played his most minutes of the year so far. The Suns seem to have an open competition ongoing between Ighodaro and Khaman Maluach for their top center spot, and the two big men should continue to jockey for playing time going forward.
