[Highlight] Chet Holmgren dribbles through DeRozan then dunks on Eubanks
JDub missing time is doing wonders for Chet. The depth and skill this team has on top of SGA’s greatness is just bonkers.
It’s kinda like the inverse of last season when JDub leveled up while Chet was out for most of the season.
It’s like benching your starter in pokemon to level up your pidgetto to a pigeot. Everyone gets time
You mean exp switching for magikarp?
Well j-dub is completely out so you can’t really xp switch. He’s fainted
I think the real question is which of your players is going to evolve into Gyarados
What if I told you the secret that all of them were leveled up but play a subset of their games and they always had it in them?
That’s definitely a much tighter handle, but what was that defense? lol
Yeah Derozan has always been shit
He hasn’t been that shit. Kings vets aren’t trying
Yeah, didn’t want to oversell the handle in the title since DeRozan basically lets it happen. But this is the kind of play Chet wouldn’t have pulled off last season. He’s been so much more aggressive and confident this season.
Chet could not have powered thru that last year.
yeah he probably wouldve either fell over or lost his dribble
nice to see improvement from the young guy!
It’s kings basketball defense, saloon door type of defense.
I’ve not heard the saloon door joke before but I’m definitely stealing that lmao
is that a new okc logo? looks sick ngl
City edition. They had a teal version a few years ago that I preferred
Those jerseys with PG and Russ. Clean up aisle my pants
Not every team has to have a black jersey 😩 back in my day like 3 teams had black kits and everyone else repped their own colors
It’s navy blue now not black
Yeah, this is a city jersey night. That logo is at center court too. It’s a throwback to the logo they used years ago for their city edition jerseys. I wish they’d make this the permanent one, it’s so clean.
The Native American jerseys were such a fan favorite, we’re glad to have them back
That dribbling work in the summer paid off
Dude his dribbling is so much better than last year
I haven’t seen him lose nearly as many drives this year as I did last year. Last year I hated watching him drive.
He had one of his patented “do a spin move and get the ball poked away” moments this game but that’s one of the only ones I remember noticing I think the entire season so far. Really great development there
He’s become a much more complete player. I see him being the second best player on the team soon if he isn’t already.
Hate to say it but this dude is nasty. The footwork and handling at that height is scary…
His overall offensive game is growing nicely.
Handling, footwork, midrange all coming along nicely.
He kinda the OG Wemby
I like how he looks offended (face expresion) he looks here and in general that people try to block im or score on him , remember when he as on youtube show ‘who is the nba player’ and he was chilling and then one of the guys said he scored 10 pts vs Chet and Chet was all like ‘WHEN?!’
I’m just big fan of that attitude, and being so competitive.
Too good. He and Wemby are going to be such a problem for the rest of the league for the next decade
Relevant question but if you get dunked on and it gets put on a basketball card, do you get like a cut from that? If so, Eubanks must bd eating good cuz he gets yammed on daily
Why’d I think this was a clip of him at Gonzaga for a second
Similar jersey colors

Can’t believe he got the trout of shaqdale like that
Nice move. Granted, I think Kendrick Perkins could beat DeRozan off the dribble at this point. Great finish, though.
Thunder up loud city!
What did they do to the OKC logo 😭
It’s a Native American-inspired logo for city edition nights. The logo on the scoreboard looks weird, but the one on the jerseys is clean. Way better than the normal logo, in my opinion.
