The Boston Celtics had already played 53 games in the 2023-24 NBA season before guard and former Milwaukee Bucks star Jrue Holiday finally had more than 10 assists in a single contest. That streak ended Tuesday night when Holiday helped the Celtics score a 118-110 road win over the Brooklyn Nets.

Ex-Milwaukee Bucks Star Jrue Holiday Still Doing Heavy Damage On The Floor
Holiday was all over the game against the Nets. Known to be one of the best two-way players in the league still, Holiday had a field day finding his teammates opposite Brooklyn’s leaky defense. Before the Nets game, Holiday — traded by the Milwaukee Bucks to the Portland Trail Blazers in a complex three-team deal involving the Phoenix Suns before he was sent by the Blazers to the Celtics for Robert Williams II and Malcolm Brogdon plus a couple of future picks — had two games with exactly 10 assists. One was also against the Nets back in November and the other was versus the Sacramento Kings last December.
Back in the 2022-23 NBA season, his last with the Milwaukee Bucks, Holiday had eight games of at least 11 assists, including a 15-dime outing versus the Chicago Bulls.
It is still nice to see Holiday come up with big games even though he’s no longer with the Bucks, though, hopefully, he won’t be as effective in the two remaining scheduled meetings between the Celtics and Milwaukee in March and April, respectively.
