Out for Olympics on Saturday Holiday (ankle) has been ruled out of Saturday's Olympics group-phase matchup versus Puerto Rico, Joe Vardon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Holiday is dealing with an ankle injury that occurred during Wednesday's win over South Sudan, and he will not suit up in their final group-phase matchup. The 34-year-old's elite two-way abilities have been on display throughout Team USA's showcase games and the group phase. While there is no clear timetable for Holiday's return, he will likely attempt to make it back in time for the Olympic quarterfinals, which the squad has already qualified for.
