Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday revealed on “The Draymond Green Show” that he was sound asleep when the Milwaukee Bucks traded him to the Portland Trail Blazers in a blockbuster deal involving Damian Lillard back in September. Shortly after, on October 1, Holiday found himself traded again, this time to the Celtics.
During his three seasons with the Bucks, Holiday played a significant role in their success, contributing to their championship win against the Phoenix Suns in 2021. Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups played a supportive role for Holiday during the transition, offering guidance and reassurance after the unexpected trade.
Holiday expressed appreciation for Billups’ support, noting the coach’s genuine concern for his well-being. Their conversation provided Holiday with a sense of comfort amid the uncertainty of being traded.
Despite the whirlwind of trades and adjustments, Holiday has settled into his role with the Celtics, contributing to their stellar performance this season with impressive stats across the board.
