Former Bucks guard Jrue Holiday is beginning his first season in Portland and is already helping the Trail Blazers win games. Holiday had his best seasons in Milwaukee and elevated the Bucks from just a good team to a perennial championship contender. Now he’s doing the same for the Trail Blazers, lifting an otherwise mediocre roster to a 4-2 record so far.
Jrue Holiday is an incredible ceiling raiser
Holiday has been elite in his role for years and was a valuable contributor to two recent title teams - Milwaukee in 2021 and Boston in 2024. His strong two-way play has paid off for every team that acquires him.
