Team USA and its managing director, Grant Hill, are hopeful that Jrue Holiday will commit to being a part of the 12-man squad in the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympics.
Team USA, alongside its managing director Grant Hill, is aggressively pursuing Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday to represent Team USA in the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympics, Adrian Wojnarowski from ESPN reports.
Jrue Holiday
| Position: | PG |
| Age: | 33 |
| Height: | 193 cm |
| Weight: | 82 kg |
| Birth place: | Los Angeles, United States of America |
The 33-year-old Holiday is yet to make his final decision, but Grant is hopeful Holiday will commit and be a part of a 12-man squad in Paris.
The 2024 Olympic team is expected to include such future Hall of Famers as LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Joel Embiid, and Jayson Tatum, but some of the All-Stars who publicly volunteered recently that they plan to play for Team USA won't be extended invitations.
However, there's no timetable for Holiday's decision, Wojnarowski reports.
Holiday, a five-team All-Defensive selection in the NBA, averaged 19.3 points for the Milwaukee Bucks last season. He also averaged career highs in rebounds (5.1) and free throw percentage (86%) for the Bucks, per ESPN Stats & Information.
Holiday joined the Celtics via a recent trade from the Portland Trail Blazers, who acquired him as part of the Damian Lillard blockbuster.
