Jrue Holiday Trade Grades:

One of the big after effects of the Damian Lillard trade was the strengthening of the Bucks as the best team in the East. Another was the question of where Jrue Holiday would go after he got traded to the Blazers. There were lots of rumors of him going to the Heat, 76ers, Clippers, and Mavericks. However, the Celtics(photo from Bleacher Report) silently swooped in at the last minute to get him, as they felt the need to keep up with Milwaukee. I will go over the trade for both Boston and Portland and then explain how this affects the NBA. <img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/0*OmgVWdFAgOIq46KE" style="height:875px; width:700px" /> Celtics acquire: Jrue Holiday(G)(photo via Legion Hoops) Trail Blazers acquire: Robert Williams(C)(photo from Twitter), Malcolm Brogdon(PG)(photo from Evan Sidery), 2024 first-round pick(top-4 protected), 2029 first-round pick <a href="https://medium.com/@aramster2003/jrue-holiday-trade-grades-cf42ec7286a3">Click Here</a>
