Sam Presti on Chet Holmgren “he wants to be really good, he cares a lot. The thing I’m really impressed with is that he isn’t an outside in guy, genuinely he loves basketball, he loves the team, he is highly intelligent…he is mature…he has never experienced an injury.” – 11:01 AM
Bobby Marks @BobbyMarks42
Chet Holmgren had an Exhibit 5 (other activities) and the Seattle Crawsover Pro Am was on the list of sanctioned events by the NBA. – 10:55 AM
Joe Mussatto @joe_mussatto
It sounds like Nick Collison is going to be involved in Chet Holmgren’s recovery process, especially from a mental standpoint. Collison missed his entire first season with shoulder injuries. – 10:50 AM
Rylan Stiles @Rylan_Stiles
Sam Presti “there are a lot of guys that have missed their first year, and have had great careers.” Said they will get through Holmgren missing his entire first year. – 10:49 AM

Sam Presti says that if you asked him before the lottery that he might get the #1 pick or the #8 pick or he could have Chet Holmgren, he wouldn’t have let you finish the sentence. He’d take Chet. And he still would. – 10:40 AM

Sam Presti on Chet Holmgren: “His spirits are high and he’s ready to roll on the rehab.” – 10:38 AM
Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar
Chet Holmgren was my #1 ranked prospect in the 2022 NBA Draft and still believe he was the right pick.
The talent and superstar upside is enormous with Chet.
Like Blake Griffin, Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons, gotta believe Holmgren will miss his first season and come back a star. – 10:35 AM
Ben Rohrbach @brohrbach
Thunder GM Sam Presti says Chet Holmgren will require surgery and is expected to make a full recovery. – 10:34 AM
Joe Mussatto @joe_mussatto
Presti says Holmgren’s injury is a “rupture of the tendon” and “not a fracture.” – 10:32 AM

Re: skinny big men, look at how big Victor Wembanyama is.

I know the Chet Holmgren injury has folks questioning the importance of Pro-Am events, and that’s valid, but I hope it doesn’t cause other pros to hesitate in the future. It’s so huge for kids without local NBA teams to see the stars in person. – 6:26 PM

Chet Holmgren is undergoing tests for a possible right foot injury suffered in a pro-am game Saturday in Seattle, a team spokesperson told @Adrian Wojnarowski.

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Beyond the injury itself, the crappy part of Chet Holmgren getting injured is that many are already screaming about “damn pro-am!”
Guys are playing somewhere all the time. This one just happened to be seen by a ton of people. Lots of guys get hurt in private runs. It happens. – 2:40 PM
