Aaron Holiday came into Saturday’s game against the Atlanta Hawks having played just 16 minutes in six games and barely making it onto the court outside of garbage time.
But with Victor Oladipo down, the rookie out of UCLA made his presence known and scored 12 points in 15 minutes, including a pull-up three that put the Indiana Pacers up for good in the third quarter.
It’s worth mentioning that the confidence Holiday had to have to take that shot at that moment in the game shows a lot about the player he may become.
