Bad luck continues to plague the Oklahoma City Thunder this season.
Chet Holmgren will be out for 8 to 10 weeks after suffering a small tear in his patellar tendon, according to ESPN.

Holmgren’s absence is a huge blow to the team’s future aspirations, as team-mates Jalen Williams and Cason Wallace have also been ruled out for long spells.
Williams suffered a terrible injury against the Los Angeles Clippers and Wallace was also unable to finish the game after tearing the labrum in his right shoulder.
Both will miss the rest of the season.
Holmgren is averaging 12 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3 blocks in half an hour of play per game.
