Jrue Holiday's Viral Post On Instagram After Getting Traded To Trail Blazers
Jrue Holiday is coming off another fantastic year where he made his second NBA All-Star Game.
The former UCLA star averaged 19.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.2 steals per contest while shooting 47.9% from the field and 38.4% from the three-point range in 67 games.
He has spent the previous three seasons playing for the Milwaukee Bucks, but on Wednesday, the 33-year-old was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers.
On Thursday, Holiday sent out a post on Instagram with a photo (and a message).
There were over 75,000 likes in less than four hours.
Holiday wrote: "THANK YOU MILWAUKEE
Thank you fans! For those who know me best, they know we are all about family.
Milwaukee- You welcomed me and my family into your city, into your homes, into your hearts.
We will forever be champions together, and me and my family will forever be grateful and thankful.
Until next time, thanks for everything!"
Over three years with the Bucks, Holiday averaged 18.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.5 steals per contest while shooting 49.4% from the field and 39.5% from the three-point range in 193 regular season games.
The Bucks made the NBA playoffs every single year, and in 2021, they won the NBA Championship over the Phoenix Suns.
Following the trade, the Bucks have one of the best duos in the league, with seven-time NBA All-Star Damian Lillard and two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo.
This past season, the Bucks were the first seed in the Eastern Conference with a 58-24 record but lost to the Miami Heat in the first round of the playoffs.
