因表演賽防守LBJ，雷霆救世主 Chet Holmgren 確定報銷賽季

根據《The Athletic》記者Shams Charania 報導中指出，雷霆2022 年NBA 選秀第二順位選進的榜眼救世主Chet Holmgren，因右腿附蹠關節受傷，確定報銷2022-2023賽季。

此次受傷原因，來至於前NBA球員Jamal Crawford所舉辦的西雅圖太平洋大學舉辦的表演賽上，這位雷霆新秀在防守LeBron James快攻時，下落不慎受傷。Jamal Crawford 也在第一時間為了保護球員，在半場結束前中斷比賽。

“Certainly, we are disappointed for Chet, especially given the excitement he had about getting on the floor with his teammates this season. We know Chet has a long career ahead of him within our organization and the Oklahoma City community. One of the things that most impressed us during the process of selecting Chet was his determination and focus. We expect that same tenacity will carry him through this period of time as we work together and support him during his rehabilitation.”

隨後雷霆球團GM Sam Presti 也做更最新聲明:

對Chet Holmgren 的傷勢感到失望，尤其他夏季聯賽的全能身手，原本預期他新賽季會與隊友一起上場有良好表現。且在雷霆隊用第二順位挑選他過程時，他的決心和專注態度使球團印象深刻。也表示會共同努力在他康復期間給予支持，陪他一同度過這段艱難的復健時期。

Chet Holmgren 在雷霆的夏季比賽中場均得到14分、8.4個籃板、2.8火鍋、2.4次助攻和1.6次抄截的全能身手。
