After a shaky start in the NBA Finals, Thunder rookie Chet Holmgren stepped up big in Game 2, dropping 15 points and grabbing six rebounds to help Oklahoma City take down the Pacers 123-107. His coach, Mark Daigneault, made sure to highlight the young star’s resilience—proving that even in the high-pressure Finals, Holmgren can shake off a rough game and deliver when it counts.
Editor’s Note: Holmgren’s bounce-back isn’t just a good storyline—it’s a sign that the Thunder’s rising star can handle the spotlight. For a team in the Finals, having a rookie who doesn’t crumble under pressure could be the difference between a championship and an early exit. Plus, it’s always fun to watch a young player silence the doubters.
