Story summary

Bleacher Report projects Chet Holmgren of the Oklahoma City Thunder to earn his first National Basketball Association (NBA) All-Star nod in 2025–26.
In 2023–24 he averaged 16.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2.3 blocks, but injuries limited him in 2024–25.
With Jalen Williams sidelined, Holmgren should take a larger scoring role behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and 34 nationally televised games boost visibility.
