This Thunder team is battle tested at this point in the season — small injuries and changes in the rotation doesn’t faze Oklahoma City. Part of the reason the Thunder have developed an ability to adjust on the fly is because this team played without one of its star players for more than half the season.

22 games into the 2024-25 campaign, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Chet Holmgren is finding continuity alongside Isaiah Hartenstein in head coach Mark Daigneault’s lineup. While the pair have only played together in a dozen of those 22, Holmgren is adapting to Hartenstein’s presence at center on both ends of the floor.
