Jrue Holiday has been a guard for the Boston Celtics since 2023, after being traded by the Milwaukee Bucks. He is considered one of the greatest defensive guards in NBA history and is a two-time NBA champion, winning titles with the Bucks in 2021 and the Celtics in 2024. In the 2023-24 season, he started all 69 games, averaging 12.5 points, 4.8 assists, and a career-high 5.4 rebounds, with a 42.9% 3-point field goal percentage. Holiday has been selected to the NBA All-Defensive Team six times and is a two-time All-Star. He is also an Olympic gold medalist, representing the USA in 2020 and 2024. Over 15 seasons in the NBA, he has played in 975 games, starting 894, and averaging 16.1 points, 6.4 assists, and 4.2 rebounds.

A native of California, Holiday spent the 2008-09 season with the UCLA Bruins before being drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers as the #17 overall pick in the first round of the 2009 NBA Draft. After four seasons with the 76ers, he was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans in 2013, where he played for seven seasons. He was then involved in a four-team trade that included the Denver Nuggets, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Milwaukee Bucks, joining the Bucks in 2020. In September 2023, the Celtics acquired him in exchange for Robert Williams III, Malcolm Brogdon, and two future first-round draft picks.
