More discreet in recent weeks, Chet Holmgren woke up this Wednesday evening for the Thunder, with a pretty crazy performance.
And the fans loved it.
The Thunder hosted the Jazz this Wednesday evening and the franchise of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (31 points) largely did the job with a 119-107 victory.
It was especially Chet Holmgren who took the opportunity to wake up with 35 points on 12/18 shooting, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks.
A great performance for the rookie, much more discreet in these last weeks of competition.
Chet Holmgren feasts with the Thunder
After Anthony Edwards with the Wolves earlier in the week, Holmgren also signed a spectacular poster at the start of the third quarter while his team was trailing.
Total destruction, setting the room on fire and impressing the supporters in the process.
Yes, Chet also knows how to have fun in the circle.

Chet Holmgren becomes the fourth rookie in at least the last 51 years – since steals & blocks have been recorded – to put up 35+ points, 14+ rebounds. 2+ steals, and 3+ blocks in a single game

Chet Holmgren became the fourth rookie in at least 51 years to record more than 35 points, 14 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks in a single game.
A great feat for Holmgren, who hopes to have a big influence on his team in the weeks to come.
The Thunder will play big in the playoffs, with the firm intention of making a big run. For now, the fans are won over.
Chet and Wemby over the years gonna give us some crazy stat lines

Chet and Wemby are going to give us some crazy stat lines over the years
Chet Holmgren has just struck a big blow with this performance, allowing the Thunder to get rid of the Jazz.
No doubt, we will have to be wary of this franchise once in the playoffs.
