Chet Holmgren has already established himself among the best (and most popular) players in the NBA.
The former Gonzaga star missed the 2022-23 season due to injury, but he is coming off an excellent rookie year where he helped the Thunder finish as the first seed in the Western Conference with a 57-25 record.
Recently, Holmgren dropped exciting news on social media.
Holmgren wrote: “Can’t wait to host the next generation of hoopers at my first basketball camp! I hope to see some faces from my hometown there until I can come home to host one in the twin cities!

Kids will get the chance to learn from one of the best big men in the NBA.
