    The OKC Thunder have their own Unicorn and his name is Chet Holmgren. He is ready to rival Victor Wembanyama as the NBA’s next great big man superstar. Wembanyama vs. Chet Holmgren is looking like a rivalry for the ages and both the Thunder and Spurs are rallying behind their star centers. Aside from Wembanyama, Chet Holmgren might be the craziest defensive athlete I’ve ever seen. However, comparing their NBA ceilings could be tricky. The Thunder beat the Golden State Warriors in consecutive games.
    The OKC Thunder already have a superstar in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and a lot of emerging young talent in Josh Giddey, Jalen Williams, Lu Dort, and Cason Wallace. The Thunder are primed to make the playoffs this season while Wembanyama and the Spurs are looking to play the long game as a rebuilding team. NBA highlights for the next decade will feature a lot of Holmgren and Wemby.
    Right now, Sam Presti and the Oklahoma City Thunder might have gotten the best X-factor in the NBA with Holmgren. He is already a huge two-way player that is leading the Rookie of the year race this early in the season, ahead of Victor Wembanyama, Ausar Thompson, and Scoot Henderson. But can Holmgren take the OKC Thunder to the next level of championship contention? The Thunder’s rebuild might not be over but with all their draft picks, they can accelerate their timeline. But just how good is Chet Holmgren?

    Being a thunder fan since Durant and Westbrook were still sophomore and rookie respectively, I am really amazed how Presti is pulling these kinds of things off by relying on the draft and picking the right pieces. I mean he drafted 3 MVPs. He is really a genius in seeing potential i guess.

    Chet currently is the better shooter vs Wemby, mainly due to SGA existing and is a bigger threat plus a good supporting cast. Wemby still needs to learn to find his spots, and Vassell is taking more tough shots since Sochan is not a true PG and know how to make plays around the 2 guys.

      I agree he will most likely improve and become a peremial all star, but it is far from a guarantee. It is also quite possible that Chet will end up as a better player than wemby.
      People tend to focus on potential than how the players are playing the game right now, even though many players would never reach their potential. People thought Oden had higher potential than KD, so they picked KD second even though KD was a better player and have a better feel of the game at the time.
