Jrue Holiday Fantasy Stats

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday was rumored to be possibly leaving the organization this summer. According to Jake Fischer, the Blazers have no plans to buy out Holiday from his contract. There was speculation that Holiday would head to the Philadelphia 76ers, assuming he was able to secure a buyout from Portland. That won't happen, as the Blazers intend to keep Holiday around despite having a boatload of guards. This past season, Holiday averaged 16.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 6.1 assists across 29.4 minutes per game in 53 games. It could be more difficult for Holiday to secure consistent playing time this upcoming season. The Blazers acquired Ja Morant earlier this offseason, and Damian Lillard is fully healthy again. Portland also has Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe, so Portland has too many mouths to feed. The aging veterans, such as Holiday and Lillard, are likely to see a reduction in playing time this upcoming season.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday is happy with his current situation and wants to remain with the team, Joe Freeman of The Oregonian reports. "I hope so. I don't like being traded and moved and stuff," Holiday said about remaining in Portland. "I like being a part of something and building with the team and seeing the progress and going through the progress with them. So I hope so. I'd love to be here." After spending seven years in New Orleans, Holiday has suited up for three different teams this decade. His fantasy stock improved with his move to Portland, as Holiday averaged 16.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 1.0 steals in 29.4 minutes per game this season. Compared with his time in Boston, he had a much larger offensive role. Holiday, who will be 36 in June, has two seasons remaining on a four-year, $135 million contract.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday tallied 21 points with a 7-for-18 effort from the field during Tuesday's 114-110 Play-In Tournament victory over the Phoenix Suns. Holiday scored five consecutive points to spark a Portland comeback from a 100-89 deficit midway through the fourth quarter. The veteran finished 4-for-11 from downtown and completed his line with four rebounds and four assists across 38 minutes. Holiday has a lot of postseason pedigree and will be expected to be one of the leaders during the playoffs on a team that will have many postseason debutants. The two-time NBA champion has averaged 16.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.4 steals in 97 career playoff appearances.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) will play on Thursday against the Miami Heat, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports. The veteran will be back in action after skipping the second leg of a back-to-back on Sunday against the Sacramento Kings. Holiday recently returned from a right calf injury, averaging 10.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.0 steals in 19.3 minutes. He has been productive since returning, but the team has understandably limited Holiday's workload following his two-month injury layoff.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Holiday recently ended a lengthy injury absence and has played in three consecutive games. However, Portland has a back-to-back scheduled for this weekend, and it's likely the veteran guard will sit out at least one of the games. Caleb Love's fantasy stock has been on the rise lately and would get a further boost with Holiday's absence. Rayan Rupert may also log additional minutes in the rotation.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) will play on Sunday against the Knicks. He hasn't played in nearly two months. As a result, it may take him at least a few contests to find his footing. With that said, Holiday was averaging 16.7 points before going down with the injury, his highest in years, so fantasy managers can get him back in the lineup.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) will remain on the shelf for Friday's tilt against the Houston Rockets. The team has downgraded Holiday on the injury report from doubtful to out. The veteran guard will miss his 27th straight game due to a right calf strain. Although Holiday will sit out again on Friday, he seems to be moving in the right direction. He was cleared for on-court activities last week and hadn't been listed as doubtful before. With Holiday sidelined, Caleb Love will continue to have additional fantasy value on Friday night. He has notched 15.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 3.0 assists per game since the turn of the year.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Boston and remains without a timetable after missing 19 games since Nov. 14. The veteran's continued absence has consolidated playmaking duties for Deni Avdija, who has averaged 26.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 8.4 assists in 39.4 minutes over his last five games. Shaedon Sharpe maintains a primary scoring role, while Sidy Cissoko, Rayan Rupert, and Caleb Love stay in the rotation but lack fantasy reliability. Holiday remains a stash-only option.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) has been ruled out again Saturday against Sacramento, extending his absence to 16 straight games with no clear timetable for return. The veteran guard was productive before going down, averaging 16.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists, and 1.6 steals in 33.4 minutes, but the prolonged layoff makes him an IL-only hold for now. Portland's rotation has stabilized without him, with Deni Avdija logging 42 minutes in the last game, while Shaedon Sharpe and Toumani Camara continue seeing steady usage.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) won't be in the lineup on Thursday against the Sacramento Kings. He has been out of action since mid-November due to a right calf strain, and his return doesn't appear to be near. With Scoot Henderson (hamstring), Matisse Thybulle (thumb), and Blake Wesley (foot) also out of commission, Sidy Cissoko, Rayan Rupert, and Caleb Love have held roles in the rotation. However, the trio has been underwhelming. Deni Avdija has taken on more playmaking duties without Holiday and will look to continue his superb campaign on Thursday night. There could be many standout fantasy lines in this matchup, as both teams are ranked inside the top 10 in pace.
