The Oklahoma City Thunder exercised their fourth-year contract options Wednesday on Chet Holmgren, Ousmane Dieng and Jalen Williams and their third-year option on Cason Wallace.

Holmgren (second overall), Dieng (11th) and Williams (12th) were all drafted in the first round in 2022. Wallace was the 10th overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft.

Holmgren, 22, debuted last season and was runner-up for Rookie of the Year after averaging 16.5 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.3 blocked shots in 82 starts. He became the first player in NBA history to tally at least 150 assists, 150 blocks and 100 made 3-pointers in a single season.

Dieng, 21, saw action in 72 games (one start) over the past two seasons with the Thunder and averaged 4.5 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists. He was named the 2024 G League Finals MVP after leading the Oklahoma City Blue to their first championship.

Williams, 23, appeared in 71 games (all starts) last season with the Thunder and finished second on the team in scoring (19.1 points) to go along with 4.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.1 steals. He finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting in 2022-23.

Wallace, 20, received NBA All-Rookie second-team honors last season after appearing in 82 games (13 starts) and averaging 6.8 points, 2.3 boards and 1.5 assists. He shot 41.9% from 3-point range, second among rookies.

The Thunder open the 2024-25 regular season on Thursday night at Denver.
