The Oklahoma City Thunder kicked off their NBA Summer League schedule last night with a win over the Jazz in Utah and it didn’t take long for their star rookie, Chet Holmgren, to become the GOAT.
In fact, it took just one game. One awesome game by the No. 2 overall pick in last month’s NBA Draft. One really fun game by the 7-foot-1 former Gonzaga star. Holmgren finished with 23 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, and 6 blocks and stole the hearts of everyone who stayed up late to watch the game.
