Knicks interested in Jrue Holiday after Damian Lillard blockbuster

The New York Knicks are expected to ask the Portland Trail Blazers about recently acquired guard Jrue Holiday, according to ESPN’s Zach Lowe. Holiday was acquired Wednesday in a three-team blockbuster trade that sent Damian Lillard to Milwaukee and Jusuf Nurkic to Phoenix.

Portland is now trying to trade Holiday and his nearly $35 million in salary. He’s still effective at 33, but the Blazers are building around Anfernee Simons. Jrue Holiday, despite his talent, is suddenly the odd man out and being actively shopped.

So how would a veteran point guard like Holiday fit in with the Knicks?
