Young NBA stars Victor Wembanyama (left) and Chet Holmgren

Chet Holmgren and Victor Wembanyama are competing for the title of rookie of the year this season, ahead of the competition. A soap opera that agitates supporters, and with sometimes very mixed opinions. The last one was no exception.

It’s still a little early in the season, but it looks like the rookie of the year trophy will be between Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren. It’s not a real surprise when we see the level of the two players, like the Frenchman’s recent carnage. However, this title is not a priority for them. Holmgren is aiming for the playoffs with the Thunder, while Wemby simply wants to help the Spurs win.

Wembanyama/Holmgren, the debate continues!

Nevertheless, and on social networks, we can see many debates about the two players. Fans do everything to defend their favorite and the BallDontStop account shared an interesting opinion this Saturday to say the least. According to him, Chet is “definitely” the rookie of the year thanks to what he brings to the Thunder. An outing that did not fail to provoke a reaction.

Chet Holmgren is definitely rookie of the year so far. He brought OKC a whole new dynamic. Crazy co-ordination and feel for the game for his build. Makes shots from everywhere. pic.twitter.com/kZ6y3nF2gI

Chet Holmgren is definitely the rookie of the year at the moment. He brought a whole new dynamic to OKC. Incredible coordination and sense of the game for his size. He hits shots from everywhere.

It must be recognized that Chet’s season has been incredible so far, but made easier by a well-built team, like the presence of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. For other supporters, it is clear that Wembanyama remains on top.

“Definitely” have you not watched Wemby play? And don’t focus on how terrible his team is.

Chet is amazing but Wemby is in a different tier.

“Definitely” did you watch Wemby play? And don’t focus on how horrible his team is. Chet is great but Wemby is on a different level.

Wemby beats Chet in every statistical category and he’s a real rookie.

Wemby beats Chet in every statistical category and he’s a true rookie.

The debate is far from over between Chet Holmgren and Victor Wembanyama, who risk being compared for many years. The start of a long rivalry, with a rookie of the year trophy to begin the hostilities.
