This season has been full of highs and lows for Chet Holmgren of the Oklahoma City Thunder, but his highs have been so astounding.
On Wednesday night, the Thunder center had another spellbinding performance.
As noted by Legion Hoops, Holmgren put up 22 points, 17 rebounds, three blocks, and two steals while shooting 7-of-12 from the field on the way to a 129-121 win over the Brooklyn Nets.
After an unfortunate injury at the start of the season, it seems that Holmgren is making up for lost time.

This was supposed to be a huge year for Holmgren and his Thunder.
After such a successful 2023-24, the team promised they were going to remain just as powerful this year and had their sights set on a championship.
Things got off to a great start for both Holmgren and his team and then disaster struck.
He was injured at the start of November and missed months of time on the court, finally returning at the start of February.
Since then, he has averaged 14.7 points and 8.5 rebounds on 51.7 percent from the field.
The Thunder were great even during his absence, but they have gladly welcomed him back, and he has been doing great things for them.
They remain the best team in the West with a 47-11 record.
Holmgren’s career has been derailed by injuries a couple of times, but every time he returns, he shows why he was selected as the No. 2 overall draft pick in 2022.
The young man has serious talent and is a dominant threat on both ends of the court.
