On the OKC Thunder radio broadcast at the start of every game, they play a short into for each player in the starting five. Each player does the voiceover and says their name, number, and position (i.e. "Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Number 2, point guard," "Jalen Williams, Numer 8, forward," etc.). Chet's intro. is, "Chet Holmgren, Number 7, Basketball Player!"
During PreSeason 2023, Chet was asked "Who is the best player in NBA?' He said "Me, after 20 games". Then said he expects to be 50/40/90. Which he was doing for first 25games. He obviously got tired at end of last yr. Before Valentines Day he had 15games of 4+ blks. After that in last 28games he had 0 games of 4+ blks. Now w/ occasional rest days, IHart & a yr of gaining strength, experience & an off-season of working on his game, his upside is through the roof.

W take
I mean Chet and KD have been in the lab together during the past 2 off seasons
No way does OKC need KD
👍👍
Chet is more like KG than KD. He doesn't have the shot volume like KD and plays on both ends of the court like KG
Chet could be the best player but not until Shai is past his prime.
