What happened: Dan Woike revisited the fallout from the Thunder's Game 7 elimination by the Spurs, flagging it as a must-read for fans catching up. He argued that Oklahoma City and Chet Holmgren have a lot of work to do this summer to figure out how Holmgren can be more effective against Victor Wembanyama and San Antonio.
Why it matters: The matchup exposed a frontcourt gap that now shapes Oklahoma City's offseason priorities, from Holmgren's development to how the roster is built around him. With Wembanyama and the Spurs advancing while the Thunder bowed out, closing that gap becomes the defining question of OKC's summer.
What to watch: Watch how the Thunder retool their frontcourt this offseason and whether Holmgren adds the strength and counters needed to match Wembanyama in future meetings.
