Holiday Traded to Boston in Blockbuster Deal
Four-Year, $135 Million Contract Secured by All-Star Guard
Celtics Boost Roster with Dynamic Playmaker
In a stunning move, the Boston Celtics have acquired All-Star guard Jrue Holiday from the Portland Trail Blazers in a blockbuster trade. The Celtics announced the deal Sunday afternoon, with Holiday agreeing to a four-year, $135 million contract extension.
Holiday joins a Celtics team already boasting stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. The 32-year-old guard brings a wealth of experience and leadership to Boston, having previously played for the Philadelphia 76ers, New Orleans Pelicans, and Milwaukee Bucks.
In exchange for Holiday, the Celtics sent Robert Williams III, Malcolm Brogdon, and two future first-round picks to Portland. Holiday is expected to immediately bolster the Celtics' lineup, providing a dynamic playmaker and experienced defender.
The trade marks a significant move for both teams, as the Celtics seek to contend for an NBA championship while the Blazers begin a rebuilding process. Holiday is a proven talent, having been named an All-Star in 2013 and 2018.
