Golden State isn’t the only team employing an opening strategy that eschews their best player, a former-MVP, for an average shot. The most frequent opening attempter for the Oklahoma City Thunder? Chet Holmgren. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has taken nearly 400 field goals this season, second in the entire NBA, but only one of those came in an opening minute of a Thunder game. Chet has taken five, Cason Wallace and Aaron Wiggins three each, and Lu Dort and Isaiah Hartenstein two each. Head Coach Mark Daigneault knows Shai will get to his 30-piece anyway, so he uses the opening action to get the rest of the guys involved.
