Jrue Holiday is happy he was able to sign a contract extension with the Celtics before the playoffs started.
The four-year, $135 million deal keeps Holiday under contract with Boston through the 2027-28 season. Holiday said there were conversations about the deal throughout the season. He feels that things went smoothly.
“Honestly, it’s a blessing. This is my 15th year. I’m 33,” Holiday said. “The opportunity that God has given me to be able to already play for this many years and kind of lock it in for more, for me to be healthy, and for the organization just to see me and appreciate what I bring to the team is a blessing for me.
