After three seasons in the association, OKC Thunder big man Chet Holmgren has established himself as both an NBA Champion and, with the recent signing of his rookie extension, a $250 million man.
Now, heading into 2025-26, it already seems that the big is looking to add All-Star to his list of accomplishments, and, based on his recent social media post, it appears he's been busy putting in the work to do precisely that.
Thunder stud Chet Holmgren seen working on his offensive game
Recently, Holmgren dropped a new post to his personal TikTok account showing him working on his offensive game.
The 23-year-old provided fans with glimpses of his seemingly improved handles, explosiveness off the dribble, and agility when at the rim, while being back-tracked by former Thunder star Kevin Durant's epic "I just want to play ball" rant from a few years back.
Though merely a quick eight-second clip, this sneak preview of the big man's offseason workout regimen should bring nothing but excitement to the Thunder organization and their fanbase -- and absolute fear to the rest of the league.
It's well understood that Holmgren is already an absolute juggernaut on the defensive side of the ball. During his first year in the association, he shattered the Thunder's all-time record for most blocks registered by a rookie with 190 and, this past postseason, set the league record for most swats in an NBA Finals Game 7 during the club's title-clincher against the Indiana Pacers.
The one thing that's currently keeping him from true stardom, however, is his somewhat inconsistent offensive game.
This was painfully obvious throughout OKC's 2025 playoff run, and particularly in the championship round, where he averaged just 12.3 points on 39.5 percent shooting from the floor and an abysmal 15.8 percent shooting from deep.
Now, while it's inarguable that Holmgren struggled with his shot during the postseason, it's reasonable to believe that his three-month, injury-induced hiatus and having been thrust back into their title-push rotation once cleared in February may have been a major reason for his lack of efficiency.
Let's not forget that, during the season prior, he became the first player ever to record 150 blocks, 150 assists, and 100 three-pointers in a single season, thus showing his two-way versatility.
Before suffering a right iliac wing fracture this past year, he also appeared to be well on his way to his first All-Star nod while averaging 18.2 points on 51.9 percent shooting from the floor and 40.0 percent shooting from distance during the nine games he was fully healthy for.
Clearly, Holmgren has the ability to play lights-out basketball on the offensive end, though it's apparent he has struggled to do so on a consistent basis.
Despite this, the big man still played a major role in helping Oklahoma City take home their first Larry O'Brien Trophy of the Sooner State era this past June.
If he can tap into his full potential in the scoring department, it may be game over for the rest of the NBA.
