Chet Holmgren’s Catch
UConn star Paige Bueckers reacts to Chet Holmgren’s impressive catch and shoot late in the first quarter of the OKC Thunder’s game against the Dallas Mavericks.
Jaylin Williams threw a very impressive outlet pass to the Gonzaga product, who caught the ball and hit a 3-point shot at the buzzer.
It’s very difficult to catch the ball from three-quarters of the length of the court, Considering this, Chet Holmgren’s catch was quite impressive. Paige Bueckers compared this catch to Odell Beckham Jr.’s spectacular catch against the Dallas Cowboys in the 2014 NFL season.
Bueckers’ question is an interesting one considering Austin Rivers’ mini-feud with NFL players. Recently Rivers, who has been a free agent for over a year, claimed on a show that there are 30 NBA players who can make it to the NFL, but there is no NFL player who can do it.
