Celtics Sign Jrue Holiday to Massive Contract

Bucks Lose Star Point Guard

Details of the Deal

Jrue Holiday has inked a lucrative 4-year, $134,400,000 deal with the Boston Celtics, securing his place with the team for the foreseeable future. The contract includes a fully guaranteed sum of $134,400,000, and an impressive annual average salary. The veteran point guard is poised to earn a staggering $36.9 million in the upcoming 2023-24 season, with an additional one-year player option valued at $39.4 million.

Previously, Holiday had agreed to a 4-year, $134,997,333 contract extension with the Milwaukee Bucks. The deal included a guaranteed amount of $134,997,333 and an annual average salary. However, the Celtics' offer proved too enticing, and Holiday opted to leave the Bucks after four seasons.

Holiday's departure leaves a significant void in the Bucks' roster, as he was a key part of their 2021 NBA Championship victory. His defensive prowess and leadership will be sorely missed in Milwaukee.
