Ignore his worst category (assists) and he's worth 2.53.
Your blocks-and-efficiency specialist — near-2.0 swats, 56% from the floor, rare range for a center — and he bounced back to 69 games after the prior year's pelvic fracture. The ceiling is capped by OKC's depth and the SGA/Jalen Williams pecking order, so the counting stats stay tidy rather than gaudy. Draft him for what he locks up, not for volume.
Chet Holmgren enters 2026-27 at #23 on our board — Round 2 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 17.0 points, 8.9 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 29.9 minutes a night. The value is built on blocks and rebounds, with assists the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-assists builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability helps the case: we project about 63 games.
