Jrue Holiday stops Jaylen Brown in his tracks on his first day with the Boston Celtics

New Boston Celtics floor general Jrue Holiday addressed the NBA media for the first time as part of the Celtics and participated in his initial practice with the storied ball club on this past Wednesday.

During the practice, Holiday’s impact was immediately noticeable by all in attendance. The UCLA alum demonstrated his defensive skill by stopping All-NBA forward Jaylen Brown, a notably strong player, in his tracks on one particular play. Holiday’s leadership style seems to be more reserved compared to some of the louder personalities on the team, but he is expected to lead by example on the court.
