NBA Rumors: The team that could soon close deal for Jrue Holiday

NBA Rumors: Boston Celtics have completed a disappointing championship defense season that ended in the worst way possible with Jayson Tatum's Achilles tendon rupture. Now, with new owners, some moves are expected in the summer to lighten the massive salary they accumulated to create a team that seemed destined to make history. One of the players most rumored to leave is Jrue Holiday.

The veteran point guard, who turns 35 this year, has a guaranteed contract until 2027 (32+34 million) and a player option for 27/28 worth 37 million. His performance drop this year has put him on the market, and according to Booth Newspapers, the Los Angeles Clippers are the team most interested in acquiring his services at the moment.

The Clippers tried to get Holiday a couple of summers ago when the Celtics ended up signing him by sending Malcolm Brogdon, Robert Williams, and 2 first-round picks to the Blazers (who had acquired him from the Bucks in the Damian Lillard trade).
