Some good news?
The health and availability of point guard Jrue Holiday hung over the New Orleans Pelicans as training camp began. Holiday will be on a minutes restriction through January to properly manage his troublesome tibia. Jrue's trainer Mike Guevara did an interview with our own Oleh Kosel on Holiday's progress and plan for the future.
Now for some good news. Just this afternoon Times-Picayune reporter John Reid published an interview with the man himself. Holiday, while experiencing some soreness, has been pain-free since January.
"I attended the World Cup and during that whole time (June 6-July 5), I haven't felt any pain," Holiday told reporters on Thursday after their morning practice at The Greenbrier.
