The Milwaukee Bucks’ colossal November 2020 trade for Jrue Holiday has already paid off in full, as far as that franchise is concerned. The Bucks pushed their chips into the middle of the table in November 2020, and as a result, walked away with a championship. Eric Bledsoe, two first-round picks and two first-round pick swaps are an easy price to pay for a ring.
In a twist of fate, though, while Holiday was an instrumental piece in Milwaukee’s championship run, he’s perhaps never faced more pressure during his time with the Bucks than he will in the second round of the 2022 NBA Playoffs.
