On Wednesday night, Chet Holmgren and the OKC Thunder punched their ticket to the NBA Finals by eliminating the Minnesota Timberwolves. Following their Game 5 victory, the former No. 2 pick sent one final message to Anthony Edwards.
As a native of Minneapolis, Minnesota, this series was a bit of a homecoming for Holmgren. Edwards knew this and used it as an opportunity to poke fun at the Thunder big man. Following a regular-season matchup between these teams in February, the All-Star guard sent a “welcome home” message to his competitor.
Chet Holmgren let Edwards have his moment at first but made sure to have the last laugh. Following Wednesday’s Game 5 victory, he posted a series of photos from the matchup on his Instagram. He captioned it “welcome home Chet,” a dig a Edwards’ previous remarks.
