Not many people had a better July 5th than Chet Holmgren. After being one of the most talked-about high school players in basketball history, and one of the most confusing NBA draft prospects ever, Holmgren finally got to put an NBA jersey on and show everyone what he’s got. And man... he did not disappoint.
Holmgren dropped 23 points on 7-of-9 shooting from the field and 4-of-6 shooting from deep to go along with seven rebounds, four assists, six blocks, and one steal in only 24 minutes of action. It was one of the most dominant Summer League performances ever.
