Jrue Holiday spoke to reporters Wednesday following the series of trades that resulted in him going from the Bucks to the Blazers before ultimately landing with the Celtics.
Ahead of his first season in Boston, Holiday addressed his whirlwind of an offseason. The 33-year-old said that while it was difficult to leave Milwaukee, where he spent the past three seasons, he was excited to land with NBA Finals contenders such as the Celtics.
“I feel like coming here is definitely my best chance of winning and being able to help the guys here that have made big moves and done big things in this league,” said Holiday, via NBC Sports Boston. “I’m here to just help step up that game and become a champion.”
