When is Chet Holmgren coming back? Injury update for OKC Thunder star after knee treatment

The OKC Thunder announced Friday that Chet Holmgren underwent successful treatment to address a small patellar tendon tear. Holmgren experienced mild discomfort in his right knee on Sunday and ultimately required said biological treatment after a series of consultations with specialists. He’s expected to make a full recovery and return to play in eight to 10 weeks. It’s another tough break for OKC , which has been hit hard by injuries as of late. Jalen Williams fractured his fibula and dislocated his ankle on the left side during a win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday. He underwent successful surgery Wednesday and will be re-evaluated prior to the end of this regular season. Cason Wallace also sustained a labral tear in his left shoulder during Sunday’s contest. He underwent successful surgery Friday and will be re-evaluated prior to the end of this season.
