The Portland Trail Blazers had their five-game winning streak snapped after suffering a 123-114 home loss at the hands of the New York Knicks on Sunday. The one silver lining was the return of veteran guard Jrue Holiday, who missed almost two months (27 games) due to a lingering right calf strain.
As expected, Holiday was on a minutes restriction in his first game back, coming off the bench to record eight points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two rebounds, and one steal in just 16 minutes of action. While the Blazers certainly could've benefited from a non-limited Holiday, it was great to see him back in any capacity.
