Hamidou Diallo had another highlight-reel dunk with the OKC Blue

Thunder rookie Hamidou Diallo recorded 18 points and nine rebounds on assignment to help lead the Oklahoma City Blue to a 128-111 win on the road over the Texas Legends on Tuesday.

The game was the fourth of the season for Diallo with the Blue, and his third straight on assignment. In four games in the G League, Diallo is averaging 20 points, eight rebounds, two steals, 1.8 assists and one block.

The Slam Dunk Contest winner has also thrown down a few highlight-reel jams during his time with the Blue. He had a windmill dunk last week and he added to his collection on Tuesday.

Kevin Hervey, the No. 57 overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft by the Thunder, led the Blue with 26 points, eight rebounds and six assists in the victory. Two-way contract player Donte Grantham had 13 points for the team.

With the Thunder battling for playoff positioning, the team could opt to keep Diallo with the Blue until the G League season concludes. The Blue wrap up the regular season on March 23 with the playoffs beginning shortly after.

The Blue return to action on Friday against the Memphis Hustle.
