Did Chet Holmgren REALLY Get a ‘Thug Life’ Tattoo on His Stomach? Exploring OKC’s Star Viral Image
Chet Holmgren is in the running for Rookie of the Year. However, it's his viral tattoo that is making the headlines since yesterday, but is the tattoo genuine? Let's find out.
Chet Holmgren is having a sensational rookie season in the NBA. The Oklahoma City Thunder star is doing great on both ends of the court.
His success on the court has made him a popular figure on social media and recently a post about his new tattoo went viral.
What was the post?
Recently, this image from NBACentel, an X (formerly Twitter) handle, highlighted how prepared Chet Holmgren is for the postseason grind. The picture shows that Chet has got a ‘THUG LIFE’ tattoo on his stomach.
Is the image genuine?
The original image did not include the words "THUG LIFE." It has been altered to make fun of Oklahoma's rising star and fool viewers who are unaware of the purpose of the account. Many people laughed at the joke but few of them took the post seriously as well.
Meanwhile, @thenbacentel is a parody account that indulges in fake and satirical posts. The handle is for entertainment purposes but not everyone knows about this and at times takes their posts seriously.
Holmgren’s big-game character
Holmgren might be a rookie but he hasn’t looked out of place in the league, especially against the biggest names in the NBA.
Holmgren has gone toe-to-toe against the likes of Domantas Sabonis, Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Joel Embiid and held his own to the surprise and relief of OKC fans.
Holmgren’s season so far
The OKC drafted Holmgren in the 2022 draft, but he didn’t play a single game in the 2022/23 season because of a foot injury. However, he has been in sensational form with the Thunder and is in the race for the Rookie of the Year award and is behind Victor Wembanyama in the rankings.
The power forward is averaging 16.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game and has been pivotal to the success of OKC this season.
