The Holmgren vs. Wemby thing will make for a great discussion towards the end of the season. Both guys have huge potential, and it will be interesting to see which one ends up outshining the other.

There are plenty of threads about this topic. No need to create another one

Didn't realize chet could dribble like that. It's like Kevin McHale being able to go coast to coast crossing people up going behind the back and between the legs full court. That's pretty crazy.

He has looked really comfortable pushing the ball up the court.

Wembanyama may end up being better but anyone who has him in front of Chet for ROTY right now ain't a serious person.

Chet is shooting better. Maybe because he's not the main focus of the other team like Vic. Also his 2nd year in the league much like when Simmons won it over Mitchell

Yup okc is way more talented than the spurs... helps the numbers when you're not the sole focus of the defense like SGA is.

32% from 3 isn't actually being able to shoot

OP's thread titles are starting to read more and more like youtube clickbait captions.

Chet looks a lot like MVP Durant with better defense in how he moves. Not saying he shoots as good. Markannen mold.
Wemby will be a more traditional center I think eventually.
Chet would play PF probably.

He definitely resembles KD more than Wemby, who feels more like AD to me.

AD yes, I was looking for a comparison for Wemby.
Have to remember Wemby is college aged and will look different in a couple of years.
Chet is outside in and ideally Wemby is inside out.
Re: Chet Holmgren: Better than Wemby? The OTHER rookie unicorn [Thinking Basketball]
chet is very impressive every time you catch an okc game
kids got skills
already knew about the defense and wingspan, didnt know he could shoot like that
