In a thrilling preseason matchup, Chet Holmgren and Victor Wembanyama left basketball fans on the edge of their seats. Holmgren was unimpressed with Wembanyama's celebratory flex after scoring on him, and the internet quickly caught on to the drama.

Holmgren didn't hold back, calling out the French sensation for a questionable move: a headbutt.
"The headbutt is an unstoppable move, fasho, lol"

he remarked, highlighting the intense competition between the two giants.


Upon closer inspection, it's evident that Wembanyama's head made contact with Holmgren's chin. The Oklahoma City Thunder's towering presence found himself on the floor, nursing his chin, and it's understandable that he was less than pleased with the situation.


The showdown between these basketball behemoths lived up to the immense hype. The game was a nail-biter, with the Thunder narrowly edging out the San Antonio Spurs by a single point, with a final score of 122-121.

Holmgren showcased his skills with 21 points, 9 rebounds, an assist, and a block. His impressive shooting record included 7-10 from the field, a perfect 2-2 from beyond the arc, and a flawless 7-7 from the free-throw line.

Wembanyama, on the other hand, recorded 20 points, 5 rebounds, 2 steals, and a block. He shot 8-13 from the field, 2-5 from three-point range, and 2-3 from the free-throw line, although he did commit 4 turnovers during the match.
