Many have dubbed him to be the future number 1 draft pick, and NBA teams are already keeping tabs on him. One team linked to the player is the Houston Rockets. The team is in a rebuilding process and the Gonzaga Bulls alumni fits perfectly according to their needs. 

Standing at an impressive 7-foot tall frame, the 19-year-old took his game to another level during the conference plays. Moreover, he has already made a name for himself in the NCAA tournament. And unsurprisingly, he has already established himself as one of the best players in the “March Madness” tournament.

Despite his lanky frame, he uses his height advantage and ball-handling skill to dominate the play. He averages 15.4 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 4.1 blocks per game. 

Thanks to his play, he has drawn comparisons to Giannis Antetokounmpo. Interestingly enough, the Greek Freak also had a similar frame during his days in college. Will Holmgren be the next Giannis? Only time will tell.
