Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Quiet night Thursday
Jrue Holiday notched six points (3-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebound, four assists, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Thursday's 117-108 loss to the Bulls.It was a quiet night for Holiday, who saw sixth man Payton Pritchard close the game Thursday instead as the trailing Boston Celtics looked for a spark on offense in the fourth quarter. Holiday hasn't been consistent for fantasy managers lately, as he's logged a double-digit scoring figure in only five of his last nine games, a span in which he's averaging a modest 11.3 points, 4.2 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 0.8 steals, 0.6 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers per contest. The 34-year-old veteran guard doesn't appear to be in much danger of losing his starting job as Boston's point guard, but Pritchard's emergence off the bench figures to cap Holiday's fantasy upside moving ahead.

Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Paces team during loss
Jrue Holiday notched 23 points (8-26 FG, 4-17 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 30 minutes during Saturday's 127-121 loss to the Grizzlies.Holiday took a a rare turn as Boston's top scorer, marking his second consecutive 20-point game following a two-game absence due to a knee issue. Through the first 21 games of the season, Holiday's campaign could be considered a slight disappointment given his below-average assist numbers and rocky scoring results, but this recent bump is an encouraging sign.

Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Scores 20 points vs. former team
Jrue Holiday finished Friday's 111-105 win over Milwaukee with 20 points (7-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, five rebounds, one steal and one block over 34 minutes.Holiday scored at least 20 points for just the second time this season Friday, and he ended the game as Boston's third-leading scorer behind Jayson Tatum (34) and Jaylen Brown (25). With Tatum and Brown, Holiday rarely needs to worry about his scoring numbers, but the Boston Celtics needed every point out of the veteran guard against the superstar duo of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard, who combined for 61 points. Holiday had missed the Celtics' prior two contests due to left knee tendinopathy, and he could be held out of the second leg of a back-to-back against the Grizzlies on Saturday.

Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Won't play Monday
Jrue Holiday has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Heat due to left knee tendinopathy, Jay King of The Athletic reports.Holiday played 34 minutes during Sunday's loss in Cleveland and will take a seat for the second half of a back-to-back set, marking only his second absence of the season. Holiday's absence Monday may be merely precautionary, but he should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pistons. Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser are candidates for increased roles, especially if Jayson Tatum (knee), Jaylen Brown (illness) and Derrick White (foot) are downgraded from questionable to out.

Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Posts a dud in loss
Jrue Holiday totaled four points (2-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Sunday's 115-111 loss to the Cavaliers.Holiday, who played through right adductor soreness, appeared a step slow in the loss. Before his thigh issue, Holiday battled left knee soreness in recent outings. He could certainly use some luck in the injury department, and perhaps that is contributing to his slow start to the campaign -- he's averaging just 11.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.7 three-pointers through 19 regular-season games.
