The Oklahoma City Thunder are building one of the best young cores in the entire NBA. While Shai Gilgeous-Alexander remains the face of the franchise as a 31-point-per-game scorer that finished top-five in MVP voting a season ago, anticipation continues to mount for the debut of the 2nd overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, Chet Holmgren. His fellow 2022 class members are already off to stellar starts as Jaylin Williams provided solid minutes as a starter, Ousmane Dieng showed flashes between injuries, and Jalen Williams finished runner-up for the Rookie of the Year award. If Holmgren can live up to the hype alongside his 2022 class, Josh Giddey, and Gilgeous-Alexander, the sky is the limit in Bricktown.
