The role of Justin Holiday with the Atlanta Hawks
Justin Holiday belongs to the basketball family that's in the league, headlined by Jrue. As the eldest Holiday brother of the trio, he's able to make a name for himself as a complimentary piece to the Hawks. Justin is with his younger brother, Aaron, who's found solid minutes as a backup point guard.

It's almost December and Justin's numbers aren't incredibly impressive for a perimeter player for the team's second unit. He's averaging 5.1 points, 0.9 rebounds, and 0.9 assists per game while shooting an embarrassing 37.1% from the field and 31.7% from the three.
One detail about his second stint with the Hawks is that he's not playing heavy minutes, just like Aaron. Justin Holiday has played 16.6 minutes a game this season, which is why his numbers are way down this year. Clearly, the Hawks aren't relying on the Holidays that much.
Justin Holiday won't be the team's go-to scorer, but he's capable of being a trustworthy wing if needed. He's shown his capabilities in his past teams like the Indiana Pacers and the Sacramento Kings.
More than a month later, the Hawks are 11-11 and haven't really announced their presence as a playoff threat in the East. This season has been a total journey of finding chemistry with everyone. The team has new guys like the Holiday brothers, Dejounte Murray and Frank Kaminsky.
It has definitely taken a bit of adjustment for the coaching staff and some of the Hawks players. Fans are hopeful that their squad will figure things out before the All-Star break.
