SITTING ON A bench inside the Boston Celtics' training facility, with afternoon sunlight pouring through 18 championship banners that hang next to tall glass windows along a far wall, Jrue Holiday gestures toward the parquet practice court just a few feet away. Then toward the weight room on the other side of the court. Then toward his head, legs and feet.
It's midday on April 19, and the Celtics guard has just finished his workout. Jaylen Brown lingers nearby on the court, getting up shots. Music thumps. Outside, commuters zoom by on the Massachusetts Turnpike, which ferries thousands every day into downtown Boston, located about seven miles east.
