In this new series, Thunder Wire assigns three goals to each of the 21 players, per Spotrac, that make up the Oklahoma City Thunder roster.
The Thunder’s season kicks off on Oct. 25 against the Chicago Bulls. After a surprising 40-42 campaign that ended a win shy of the playoffs, OKC enters this year with playoff aspirations.
Let’s assign three goals for Chet Holmgren, who will play his rookie season after a season-ending foot injury last year caused a delay. The 2022 No. 2 pick is OKC’s crown jewel draft pick of the rebuild. He’ll be the starting center for the Thunder and is slotted to be their best defender.
