Boston Celtics' Jrue Holiday Set to Return Against New York Knicks in Eastern Conference Semis
Get ready for a showdown! Jrue Holiday, the standout guard for the Boston Celtics, is poised to make a comeback in their Eastern Conference semi-finals series against the fierce New York Knicks on May 6, 2025 (PH time). Holiday sat out the last three games of the first round due to a nagging right hamstring strain, which he picked up on April 25[1][2][3].
While sidelined, Holiday missed out on the final three games against the Orlando Magic, where the Celtics clinched the series with a 4-1 victory[1][2][3]. In the initial two games of that series, Holiday averaged a solid 10 points, 5.5 assists, and 3.5 rebounds[1][2][3]. As the team gears up for the Knicks, his return is destined to boost the Celtics' defensive drive, especially against key players like Jalen Brunson[1][2].
