Chet Holmgren, the No. 2 pick in the draft who starred at Minnehaha Academy in Minneapolis and was the 2021 Mr. Basketball in Minnesota, will miss his entire rookie season after suffering a foot injury in a pro-am game last weekend.
The Thunder announced Thursday that Holmgren suffered torn ligaments in his foot that will require season-ending surgery.
It's a devastating blow to the Thunder and Holmgren, who would've made his NBA regular-season debut at Target Center against his home state Minnesota Timberwolves. ....wow what a coincidence!
Holmgren, 20, suffered the injury in Saturday's pro-am game in Seattle that is hosted by former NBA star (and Timberwolf) Jamal Crawford. Holmgren was defending LeBron James on a fastbreak and came up hobbling after the play.
another rookie has a an "injury" before season starts ..how stupid is this...
