It was reported Wednesday that the Oklahoma City Thunder big man had potentially torn ligaments in his foot and could miss time during his rookie season.

But on Thursday, the news came down that Holmgren will miss the season as a whole with a Lisfranc injury in his right foot.

Holmgren's injury occurred at the CrawsOver Pro-Am in Seattle last weekend, where the court was purportedly slippery and forced the event to be stopped.

The injury is believed to have happened while Holmgren was defending LeBron James on a fastbreak.

The seven-footer has faced criticism due to his frame, as he stands at a thin 195 pounds. However, he was still one of the best big men in college basketball on both ends of the floor last season at Gonzaga, averaging 14.1 points, 9.9 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game while shooting 60.7/39.0/71.7 in what was his lone season at the collegiate level.

He was one of Oklahoma City's three first-round draft selections this year (Ousmane Dieng and Jalen Williams). Holmgren played for the Thunder in the NBA Summer League and was previously partaking in other Pro-Am events.

This is a developing story.
