- NBA. Damian Lillard, Giannis Antetokounmpo were 'flirting' all year long
Jrue Holiday is currently a member of the Portland Trail Blazers after a three-team trade sent Damian Lillard to the Milwaukee Bucks earlier this week. The Boston Celtics could go after the defensive guard to replace Marcus Smart, who was shipped off the to the Memphis Grizzlies in the offseason.
Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated made an appearance Wednesday on NBC Sports Boston's Boston Sports Tonight to explaing what the Celtics would have to give up for Holiday.
"The asking price is going to be steep because there is going to be a bidding war for Jrue Holiday," Mannix said, noting that the Los Angeles Clippers, Philadelphia 76ers, Miami Heat all likely will pursue Holiday."
Jrue Holiday's price
"My early read of the landscape is that it's probably going to cost two first-round picks to get Jrue Holiday. It's going to at least cost one first-rounder and potentially a blue-chip type prospect that fits into the rebuild in Portland.
"I think the Celtics should go after him. I think they should be really aggressive. But I also think they should be prepared for a very steep asking price."
