Jrue Holiday News, Rumors, Updates - Boston Celtics

Scores 20 points vs. old team Holiday finished Friday's 111-105 win over Milwaukee with 20 points (7-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, five rebounds, one steal and one block over 34 minutes.

Impact Holiday scored at least 20 points for just the second time this season Friday, and he ended the game as Boston's third-leading scorer behind Jayson Tatum (34) and Jaylen Brown (25). With Tatum and Brown, Holiday never needs to worry about his scoring numbers, but the Celtics needed every point out of the veteran guard against the superstar duo of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard, who combined for 61 points. Holiday had missed the Celtics' prior two contests due to left knee tendinopathy, and he could be held out of the second leg of a back-to-back against the Grizzlies on Saturday.

Good to go Friday Holiday (knee) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Bucks.

Impact Holiday will return to action after missing Boston's last two contests due to left knee tendinopathy. The veteran guard is averaging 11.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.3 steals in 32.4 minutes across his last 10 appearances.

Won't play Monday Holiday has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Heat due to left knee tendinopathy, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

Impact Holiday played 34 minutes during Sunday's loss in Cleveland and will take a seat for the second half of a back-to-back set, marking only his second absence of the season. Holiday's absence Monday may be merely precautionary, but he should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pistons. Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser are candidates for increased roles, especially if Jayson Tatum (knee), Jaylen Brown (illness) and Derrick White (foot) are downgraded from questionable to out.

Posts a dud in loss Holiday totaled four points (2-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Sunday's 115-111 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Holiday, who played through right adductor soreness, appeared a step slow in the loss. Prior to his thigh issue, Holiday battled left knee soreness in recent outings. He could certainly use some luck in the injury department, and perhaps that is contributing to his slow start to the campaign -- he's averaging just 11.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.7 three-pointers through 19 regular-season games.

Will play Sunday Holiday (thigh) is available for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

Impact Holiday will play through right adductor tightness Sunday. The veteran guard should be able to handle his normal workload, especially with Derrick White (foot) sidelined. In his last five outings since returning from a one-game absence due to left knee tendinopathy, Holiday has averaged 10.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals across 31.8 minutes per game.

Questionable for Sunday Holiday is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers due to right adductor tightness, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Celtics will have several players questionable for this marquee matchup Sunday, and the potential absence of Holiday would be a great deal considering that Derrick White (foot) is questionable as well. Payton Pritchard would probably enter the starting lineup if Holiday is unable to suit up Sunday.

Held to five points Holiday ended with five points (2-10 FG, 1-8 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists in 29 minutes during Monday's 126-94 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Holiday was held to single-digit points for the second game in a row, and he's been ice cold from the perimeter. In his last two outings, he's shooting a combined 2-of-14 from beyond the arc. His usage rate has been very low this season, and now he'll have to compete for touches with a healthy Kristaps Porzingis as well.

Good to go for Tuesday Holiday (knee) will play Tuesday against the Cavaliers, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

Impact Holiday missed his first game of the season Saturday against the Raptors due to left knee tendinopathy, though the absence was believed to be a precaution. Holiday has had a slow start to the campaign, averaging 12.8 points, 4.0 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers.

Not playing Saturday Holiday (knee) is out for Saturday's game against the Raptors, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Holiday is dealing with left knee tendinopathy, and the injury will cause him to miss a game for the first time this season. Payton Pritchard, who has been excellent off the bench in 2024-25, could move into a starting role Saturday, while Holiday's next chance to play will come against the Cavaliers on Tuesday.

Iffy for Saturday Holiday (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Raptors, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Impact Holiday is dealing with left knee tendinopathy and is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the season. If the veteran point guard is unable to suit up, Payton Pritchard will likely see an increased role.

NOVEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Modest performance Tuesday Holiday amassed eight points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and seven assists across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 117-116 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Holiday delivered a passive eight points, continuing what has been a modest start to the season. Now firmly in the veteran class, Holiday's real-life impact far outweighs his numbers. While he will still occasionally have an offensive outburst, his days of being a consistent scorer are behind him.
