Celtics-Heat Notebook: ‘Overlooked’ Jrue Holiday dominates, Jayson Tatum expects ‘headbutting’ around rest, and the latest on Kristaps Porzingis

MIAMIJrue Holiday hasn’t had the smoothest ride this season. A shoulder impingement kept him out of the final four games preceding the NBA All-Star break, and then he suffered a mallet finger injury in his third game back post-break that kept him out of the next four.

Still, the two-time Olympic gold medalist pushed through the finger pain en route to his best game of the season against the Heat on Friday, exploding for 25 points on 10-15 shooting to go along with 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal.
