Chet Holmgren, the Oklahoma City Thunder forward, continues his recovery from a pelvic fracture sustained on November 10. Recently, he made a visible advancement towards his comeback, sharing a photo of himself boarding the team plane for a four-game road trip, notably without crutches. This underscores his eagerness to return to the court after being sidelined for an extended period.

After participating in a shootaround before the Thunder's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers, Holmgren expressed his determination to resume playing. He suffered the injury during a game against the Golden State Warriors while contesting a shot, resulting in significant pain and leading to his exit from the game.
