June 24 (UPI) -- The Portland Trail Blazers agreed to a trade for Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday.
Sources told ESPN, The Athletic and the Boston Globe about the agreement Monday night. The Blazers agreed to send guard Anfernee Simons and two second-round picks to the Celtics in exchange for Holiday.
Holiday, 35, averaged 11.1 points per game, his fewest since his 2009-10 rookie campaign, over 62 starts last season. He also logged 4.3 rebounds and the fewest assists (3.9) per game since his rookie year.
The two-time champion, two-time All-Star and six-time All-Defensive Team selection signed a four-year, $135 million contract extension with the Celtics in 2024. He is set to make $32.4 million in 2025-26, $34.8 million in 2026-27 and has a $37.2 million player option in 2027-28.
