JRUE HOLIDAY NEWS

Double-double against Heat Holiday ended with 12 points (5-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-4 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Saturday's 111-95 loss to the Heat.

Impact The double-double was his second straight against Miami and ninth of the season, as the veteran guard tries to keep Milwaukee afloat without Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Khris Middleton (knee) in the lineup. Holiday has had trouble staying healthy himself this season, missing 11 games for various reasons, but he's on pace to set a new career high in made threes per game while delivering more than seven assists per game for the first time since 2018-19.

Leads contest with 27 points Holiday ended with 27 points (10-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five assists, four rebounds and two steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 114-105 victory over the Hawks.

Impact On a night when Giannis Antetokounmpo shot rough from the field and finished in the single digits in the scoring column for the second time in three games, Holiday stepped up to lead the charger for Milwaukee. After recently sitting out four times in a six-game stretch while battling an illness and also working to regain conditioning, Holiday has now played exactly 34 minutes in two straight games. He doesn't look as though he'll face any limitations moving forward.

Modest performance in return Holiday amassed 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal over 19 minutes during Friday's 138-109 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Holiday returned to the lineup Friday, ending with a serviceable line, especially given the nature of the scoreline. The Bucks gave up 51 points in the opening quarter and were never really in the game. The starters were all limited to no more than 22 minutes, with the coaching staff pulling the pin very early. Holiday has been dealing with an illness for quite some time now, but hopefully, this is a sign that he is getting back to full health.

Impact Holiday returned from a three-game absence due to an illness in Tuesday's win over the Bucks. He came off the bench in the victory, totaling six points and a rebound in 19 minutes. With Holiday out for the second half of the back-to-back set along with Khris Middleton (knee) and Joe Ingles (rest), Jevon Carter, Grayson Allen, Pat Connaughton and MarJon Beauchamp are candidates to see increased run.

Impact Holiday has missed three straight games due to a non-COVID illness and is trending toward sitting out again Tuesday.

If Holiday remains sidelined, Jevon Carter and Pat Connaughton figure to be the primary beneficiaries.
