Career-best night on glass
Holmgren logged 15 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 21 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 38 minutes during Friday's 127-121 overtime victory over the Nuggets.
Analysis
The double-double was his 19th of the season, while the 21 boards were a new career high -- shattering his previous best of 17, set almost exactly a year prior against the Nets on Feb. 26, 2025. Six of Holmgren's double-doubles have come in 10 February appearances, and on the month he averaged 14.3 points, 10.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.6 blocks.

Set for Friday return
Holmgren (back) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Nuggets, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Analysis
Holmgren took a seat for Wednesday's matchup against the Pistons, but he'll be back on the court Friday. The 23-year-old is averaging 13.6 points, 9.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.6 blocks over his previous five showings.

Ruled out for Wednesday
Holmgren (back) won't play Wednesday in Detroit.
Analysis
Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) will join Holmgren on the sidelines for Wednesday's game, which should lead to major minutes for Jaylin Williams. Holmgren is getting hit with a maintenance day on the second leg of a back-to-back set, but he should return for Friday's game against the Nuggets.

Doubtful for Wednesday
Holmgren (back spasms) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.
Analysis
Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so this has all the makings of a maintenance day. Isaiah Hartenstein (rest) is also out, meaning the Thunder could rely heavily on Jaylin Williams.

Good to go Tuesday
Holmgren (back) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis
Holmgren was initially listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest due to back spasms, but the fourth-year big man has been cleared to play in the front end of the Thunder's back-to-back set. He has averaged 15.1 points, 9.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.3 blocks over 28.5 minutes per game since Feb. 1, though he's shot just 22.2 percent from three-point range (on 3.4 3PA/G) over that span.

Iffy for Tuesday
Holmgren is questionable for Tuesday's game against Toronto with back spasms, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Analysis
Tuesday is the front end of a back-to-back, so it's not shocking to see Oklahoma City think about giving the star big man a maintenance day. Jaylin Williams and Kenrich Williams could both be thrust into an elevated role if Holmgren isn't available Tuesday.

Double-double against Cleveland
Holmgren closed Sunday's 121-113 win over the Cavaliers with 17 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-9 FT), 15 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 34 minutes.
Analysis
The 15 boards tied his season high, as Holmgren recorded his 18th double-double of the campaign. Five of them have come in his last seven games, a stretch in which Holmgren is averaging 15.3 points, 10.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.0 blocks.
