Disappears in Game 7 loss
Holmgren logged four points (1-2 FG, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and two steals over 33 minutes during the Thunder' 111-103 loss to the Spurs in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.
Analysis
The Thunder desperately needed another contributor alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the absence of Jalen Williams (hamstring). While he contributed defensively, Holmgren was unable to meet the moment offensively when it mattered most, failing to attempt a shot in the entire second half while missing half of his limited free-throw attempts. It was an incredibly disappointing end to the 2025-26 season for Holmgren, who finished the Western Conference Finals having averaged 10.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.1 blocks over 29.8 minutes per game.

Grabs first double-double of WCF
Holmgren posted 16 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 127-114 victory over San Antonio in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.
Analysis
The 24-year-old center produced his first double-double of the series while setting a new scoring high for the WCF. He's gaining confidence in his matchup against Victor Wembanyama, and through five games against the Spurs, Holmgren is averaging 12.2 points, 7.0 boards, 1.2 assists and 0.8 blocks in 30.4 minutes while shooting 51.2 percent from the floor. Holmgren will look to build on this effort in Game 6 on Thursday as the Thunder try to punch their tickets to the NBA Finals.
