Holiday Taking Duarte Under His Wing

An NBA player's journey is anything but an easy cruise along a straight and open road. Instead, it ends up a roller coaster filled with ups and downs that only veterans understand later in their careers. For the Pacers, one such veteran is Justin Holiday.

Holiday has seen a lot of NBA basketball — 523 games to be exact. To date, he has played in 248 consecutive games, earning an "iron man" moniker reserved for a select few. Through it all, the veteran Pacers wing has been asked to put on many faces. He has been asked both to start and provide a spark off the bench for several years, accepting the changes to his role with extreme professionalism.
