Chet Holmgren Rumors
Propriety does not appear to be one of Chet Holmgren’s strong suits. The Oklahoma City Thunder big man Holmgren went viral this week over the ridiculous outfit that he wore to a teammate’s wedding. Thunder guard Alex Caruso married longtime girlfriend Haleigh Broucher in an extravagant ceremony in Houston, Tex. this past weekend. Holmgren was one of several OKC players seen in attendance at the wedding through footage that circulated online. One such clip featured the Thunder players, mostly wearing black or dark suits, posing for a photo. The camera then panned to Holmgren who was wearing [checks notes] an all-white suit that made him look like some combination of 1975 Elvis Presley and Disco Stu from “The Simpsons.”
The ceremony, according to Instagram snaps shared by friends and those working on the wedding, featured plenty of familiar faces on the guest list, including Sacramento Kings star Zach LaVine and Caruso's OKC teammates Chet Holmgren, Jaylin Williams and Cason Wallace — as well as Big Brother alum Angela Rummans, who appeared to be a bridesmaid over seven years after meeting Broucher, 28, on the show's 20th season.

Zach Lowe: I’ve heard from people who have seen the contract. The Chet Holmgren contract is just a straight 25% max across the board. There's no escalators in it that I know of, anything like that. And Jalen Williams, I think, will have the escalators in it.

The feeling of winning the NBA Finals is a feeling that some will never know. It’s a feeling that’s “unmatched,” as Oklahoma City Thunder forward Chet Holmgren said, but the feeling of returning to where it all started and giving back is unmatched as well. Holmgren, a recent NBA champion, returned to his hometown to host a camp for 125 children, ranging from elementary to middle school, at the Minnehaha Academy Gym. It’s the same gym where Holmgren’s #34 jersey was retired in January of 2024.

Brandon Rahbar: Sam Presti on Alex Caruso's defensive style of reading and reacting: "He's Lawrence Taylor." Reminds me of when Mark Daigneault compared Cason Wallace to Ed Reed. I'll just throw this one out there: Chet Holmgren is Ed "Too Tall" Jones.
Brandon Rahbar: Sam Presti: "When Chet got injured. He [JWill] and Hart are the ones who helped him off the floor. In all my years doing this, I've never seen a player in that much pain. That was really tough. Hart and JWill stayed with him the entire time in the back. It was the greatest act of team support I've ever seen."
