Chet Holmgren confirmed that his budding rivalry with San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama doesn't extend off the court.
"We're always going to compete and if people take it as we got beef, those people don't really understand competing, I guess," the Oklahoma City Thunder star said during an appearance on the latest edition of Paul George's Podcast P, Presented by Wave Sports + Entertainment.
While the two lanky forwards weren't members of the same draft class, they shared the same rookie season after Holmgren suffered a Lisfranc injury to his right foot that required surgery and caused him to miss his 2022-23 campaign.
