Jrue Holiday says winning the title with the Celtics is the ultimate goal
Two-time NBA All-Star guard Jrue Holiday has been receiving a lot of praise for his stellar play in the playoffs and in the ongoing NBA Finals. However, he is not letting it get into his head too much, as he is instead focusing on the ultimate goal of winning the title with the Boston Celtics.
While taking pride in what he is able to do on the court, Holiday said that at the end of the day, the most important thing for him was winning and helping the Celtics claim their 18th NBA title.
The former UCLA standout said, by way of FOX Sports:
"I'm just about winning, and I want to win, whatever it takes. It doesn't matter if I score. Honestly, it doesn't matter if I'm on the court, if I'm handing people water bottles and towels, and if that's helping us build our confidence and good chemistry and getting us wins, then I'll do it."
Heading into Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday in Dallas, Jrue Holiday has been consistent with his all-around play, averaging 15.7 points, 7.7 rebounds, 4.3 assists and a steal in 39 minutes per game to help Boston race to a 3-0 series lead.
Holiday is trying to win his second NBA title; he won his first back in 2021 with the Milwaukee Bucks.
