Holiday was a frequent starter at the Olympics. He was also instrumental in bringing a record 18th NBA title to the Boston Celtics.
The 34-year-old guard was part of Raising Cane's golden birthday promo - the 28th birthday of the fast food chain on the 28th - where he answered a number of questions from the media.
Asked to compare the celebrations of both events, Holiday stuck with the NBA title and the parade that followed.
"The medal in Paris was cool. It was, obviously, against France. It was kind of literally us against the World. But winning here was amazing. I'm not sure anything tops that," Holiday said.
"To be able to win here in Boston, Game 5... I mean, the crowd, the shot Payton [Pritchard] hit. It was just all so overwhelming," Holiday explained. "That was amazing. Then the parade was crazy, too. So I can't [compare]. I feel like I'm still on a high about it every day going on."
