6686 Sports October 26th The NBA regular season continues. The Thunder defeated the Hawks 117-100 at the away court today and won their third consecutive victory.
In this game, Holmgren played 27 minutes, making 8 of 12 shots, 6 of 8 three-pointers, 9 of 10 free throws, a team-high 31 points, and 12 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 interceptions and 1 block.
Holmgren revealed after the game that he dislocated his thumb when he blocked the slam dunk in the second quarter of today's game. He originally wanted to reattach his thumb on his own, but the team required him to take X-rays before he could play again.
Talking about his 6 three-pointers in this game, he said: "When you see the ball go in a few times, your mentality will definitely relax a lot. Of course you will look for the next shooting opportunity, but I don't really believe in the saying of 'hard shot with hot hands', that is, you will not shoot a bad ball just because you have made a few goals. So, I am still just looking for the right way to play." "
Teammate Alexander praised Holmgren: "He has a natural feel and talent for the game. As the game progresses and we continue to develop as a team, we just need to continue to ignite his passion and make sure that we can put him in a position to win, just like he did for us."
