It?s rookie season today, with Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren both facing tough competition. Well, last year’s second-overall draft pick is having a faceoff against the Chicago Bulls and is getting his feet on the court.

Although the foot injury made the rookie sit out the entire first season, he is back in the game. However, Twitter is all buzzed up with questions about why he even got the title in tonight’s game. Of course, it was the Chicago Bulls that made this happen.?

Chet Holmgren: Too Tall to Handle the Frame

In tonight?s match against the Bulls, Chet is under the spotlight, and that?s no secret. After all, how he plays in this first regular-season match will be set as a performance parameter. Chet scored 7 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 assists in his 19 minutes on the hardwood. With the Bulls trailing behind, it?s still some good news for the rookie. He did set the score too high after scoring a bucket over Vucevic. However, his ankles might take a toll in today?s fast-paced game.?
