The OKC Thunder fanbase is sitting at the edge of its seat, waiting for the debut of Chet Holmgren. The 2nd overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft out of Gonzaga suffered a season-ending foot injury last August. He eventually returned to the hardwood during the 2023 summer league in preparation to make his NBA debut during the 2023-24 NBA season. Though, it is not just the Oklahoma City Thunder fanbase that is eager to see Holmgren debut.
While Holmgren has been hurt throughout this past year, he has not been out of mind. This also includes the last few weeks when NBA veterans such as Patrick Beverley praised Chet Holmgren‘s mentality and skill.
