Down three with the game winding down, the Minnesota Timberwolves looked to Andrew Wiggins.

The team's leading scorer answered in the clutch, pulling up behind the arc and drilling a 3-pointer to force overtime against the Charlotte Hornets.

The visitors, who outscored the Hornets 18-9 in the final five minutes of regulation, rode that momentum in the extra frame to pull out a 125-120 victory.

Wiggins finished with a game-high 29 points to go along with four assists and three steals, as he helped his team end its four-game losing skid and improve to 6-14 on the season.

Leave it to the Canadian to have ice in his veins.
