Overlooked No More! Holiday to the Rescue…
MIAMI — Who knew Jrue Holiday could turn pain into gains? Despite his shoulder and finger woes, Holiday dunked a “Jrue-ly” remarkable performance in the Celtics vs. Heat match. Shooting like a basketball wizard, he scored 25 points, proving once again he’s got more tricks than a magician. The Celtics cried for some firepower as Porzingis and Brown were benched, and Jrue answered, delivering like an Amazon Prime package.
Coach Mazzulla praises Jrue as the “undervalued gem that every basketball jewelry box needs.” With Tyler Herro struggling to keep up, Holiday’s 5-of-8 three-pointers were the stuff of legends. Forget rookie days! Holiday’s impact is like a secret superpower — whispered about but not written in comics. Who knew humility could come with such a baller resume, complete with a dash of fire?
Oh, and Derrick White had his own “anti-foul” party, delightfully logging in zero fouls after previously going foul-crazy. Kristaps Porzingis continued the peek-a-boo game with illness while the stars debate whether to rest before playoffs. Meanwhile, Oshae Brissett scored a ticket to Philadelphia for a 10-day tango, crossing fingers for a long-term dance partner. Celtics fans were roaring in Miami, proving green travels better than any TSA-approved carry-on. Well, if only all baggage came with fans!
