Chet Holmgren Out 8-10 Weeks with Pelvic Fracture

The Oklahoma City Thunder face challenges as their star center suffers a significant injury, impacting their strong start to the season.

Chet Holmgren sustained a right iliac wing fracture during a game against the Golden State Warriors, sidelining him for 8-10 weeks.
The injury occurred when Holmgren collided with Andrew Wiggins while contesting a layup, leading to a hard fall on his right hip.
Holmgren, averaging 18.2 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 2.9 blocks, has been a key player for the Thunder, who are currently 8-2.
With Holmgren out, Oklahoma City will rely on small-ball lineups due to other injuries in their frontcourt, including Isaiah Hartenstein and Jaylin Williams.
The Thunder may explore trade options to bolster their roster and maintain competitiveness in the Western Conference.
