Chet Holmgren excited for additions of Isaiah Hartenstein, Alex Caruso

The Oklahoma City Thunder had a successful offseason. With over $30 million to spend in cap space, the additions of Alex Caruso and Isaiah Hartenstein shore up weaknesses from last season.

After receiving great reviews from pundits, Chet Holmgren stamped his approval on the Thunder’s offseason moves.

In a podcast appearance on “Road Trippin’,” Holmgren told former NBA players Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye why he thinks Hartenstein and Caruso are seamless fits.

“I’m extremely excited. Both very good players with great skill sets,” Holmgren said. “Both have skill sets that complement other skill sets that we have.”

Holmgren also believes both will benefit from their time on the Thunder. They are high-end role players who could see plenty of quality looks because of the gravity OKC’s trio draws.

“We have skill sets that complement what they do too. I think it’s great fits all around,” Holmgren said. “The addition to them opens up more to what we can do.

“Obviously, what we did last year works so I don’t expect us to try to rewrite the whole book this year. You’re always searching to push for your ceiling.”

Instead of sitting on their success from last season, the Thunder took a proactive approach this offseason to strengthen their roster. This has resulted in them being viewed as a title favorite for next season.
