Thunder big man Chet Holmgren is having an incredible rookie year. So much so that one of the best centers in the NBA sang his praises ahead of their first matchup Tuesday night.
“The sky is the limit,” Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert said about Holmgren, per The Oklahoman’s Joel Lorenzi. “He’s gonna write his own legacy, and I’m excited to witness that.”
Holmgren was selected with the No. 2 pick in the 2022 NBA draft out of Gonzaga but missed the entire year with a foot injury, making the 2023–24 season his rookie season. But he looks nothing like a first-year player.
