The Oklahoman answered the most relevant trade deadline questions in Oklahoma City as Thursday's 2 p.m. deadline looms.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are eagerly anticipating the return of Chet Holmgren, their 7-foot center who missed the majority of this season due to a pelvic fracture. After months of recovery, Holmgren is progressing well, and his eventual return is expected to provide a significant boost to the team’s already promising roster.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren made his last appearance in a 127-116 loss against the Warriors, where he suffered the injury. Chet has played in only 10 games this season while averaging 16.4 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2.6 blocks, and 2.0 assists in 2024-25. The Thunder will host the Kings without All-Star Jalen Williams (right sprained wrist) on Saturday.
