Top rebounder in double-double Holiday supplied 12 points (4-16 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 11 rebounds, six assists and one steal over 42 minutes during Monday's 114-109 overtime loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Holiday led all Celtics in rebounds and assists while finishing as one of five players with a double-digit point total in Monday's overtime defeat against the Wolves. Holiday has been strong on the glass while also leading the team as a floor general, tallying at least 10 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in two games this season.

Double-doubles in win Holiday posted 18 points (6-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 assists, nine rebounds and one block across 40 minutes in Saturday's 124-114 win in Brooklyn.

Impact With fellow starter Derrick White (personal), the Celtics went big with Holiday as the lone guard in the starting lineup. He was the perfect field general for the C's, distributing 10 dimes while controlling the pace of the game. The Nets, who were missing center Nic Claxton (ankle), played small ball almost the entire game and tried to force a quick pace. Holiday played quick when appropriate. But he also slowed things down to leverage Boston's size advantage with key passes inside to Kristaps Porzingis and Luke Kornet. If White doesn't play in Monday's game at Minnesota, expect another big assist night from Holiday.

It's early, but these Celtics appear to be built to contend for Banner 18 if they can stay healthy - The Boston Globe Their core — Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday, Derrick White, and Al Horford — is the most talented and well-rou...

Scores 11 in win over Wizards Holiday finished Monday's 126-107 victory over the Wizards with 11 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 27 minutes.

Impact Holiday has seen a downgrade in his offensive responsibilities compared to what he had in Milwaukee, and he will now operate as Boston's fourth-best scoring threat behind Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis. There's no question Holiday can get it done on both ends of the court, but that reduction in usage rate and overall role will conspire against his fantasy upside. Of note, he has failed to reach the 15-point mark in two of his first three outings this season after averaging 19.3 points per game in Milwaukee last season.

How Jrue Holiday and the Celtics are learning to play with one another Jrue Holiday is starting to learn his place in Boston's offense, which is opening a lot of doors for his teammates to make big plays.

Produces double-double in win Holiday posted 17 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, seven assists and one block across 36 minutes in Friday's 119-111 home win over Miami.

Impact Holiday's defensive effort will always be impressive. But his offensive production will probably be up and down as he competes for shots with star teammates Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis. On Friday, Holiday shot well from the field, was a rebounding force inside and came close to a triple-double. He also looked for his shot early. Through two games, Boston has received very little from its bench. For Holiday, that has resulted in 35.5 minutes per contest. Expect huge minutes for Holiday moving forward.

Plays great defense in Boston debut Holiday recorded nine points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 108-104 win over the Knicks.

Impact The Celtics had Holiday guarding power forward Julius Randle, a clear sign of how much Boston admires Holiday's defensive prowess. The veteran guard registered three blocks in his Boston debut. However, he often deferred to teammate Derrick White as the floor general on the offensive end. All five Boston starters, including Holiday, played 32-plus minutes, which highlighted Boston's weak bench. Expect major minutes all season long from Holiday, but big scoring nights might be limited as he plays alongside stars Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis.
