Jrue Holiday · In the longest gap between All-Star berths in league history, Jrue Holiday has been well worth the wait. In his second-to-last contest before a well-deserved second All-Star Game, the Milwaukee Bucks point guard erupted for one of the finest performances of his career against a fellow Eastern Conference titan. Whether he was picking Derrick White’s pocket for a steal that led to a fast break slam or unleashing a steady barrage of 3-pointers, Holiday was at the top of his game in a thrilling showdown that needed overtime to decide a winner. In the end, Holiday’s masterful night of 40 points on 13 for 21 shooting — including a sizzling 8 for 12 mark from downtown — along with five rebounds and seven assists was too much for the Boston Celtics to overcome in Milwaukee’s exhilarating 131-125 win on February 14, 2023. · State of Mint · State of Mint
