Jrue Holiday will return for Team USA's quarterfinal game against Brazil on Tuesday after missing Saturday's group stage finale with an ankle injury, head coach Steve Kerr said Saturday (h/t Marc J. Spears of ESPN and Andscape.)

Holiday suffered a rolled ankle during Team USA's Wednesday win over South Sudan.

The injury kept him out of the starting lineup Saturday as the Americans rolled to a 104-83 win over Puerto Rico.

Every member of Team USA other than Holiday played during Saturday's victory, so Kerr should expect a fully healthy lineup heading into the knockout round.
