Derrick White and Jrue Holiday, two guards with the Boston Celtics, have received a lot of acclaim for their ability. Nevertheless, they have also had an impact on the players of the future in the NBA. One of them is Bronny James, son of LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers.

Bronny mentioned the two Celtics guards (as well as Sacramento Kings player Davion Mitchell) as some of his main influences during a May 14 interview with reporters.

Jimmie James remarked, “He just makes all the right plays,” reports The Athletic. “That sounds like my dream job.”Although White and Holiday aren’t exactly household names in the NBA, their contributions on the floor have earned them plenty of recognition. James shares a similar physique with both of them. in six feet and one inch, he was labeled as a guard in the combine, just like White and Holiday.

In the 2024 NBA Draft, the Celtics have Bronny as a potential option. The 30th and 54th draft picks, respectively, are in their possession. As a junior, he had a forgettable campaign with the USC Trojans, averaging just 4.8 points, 2.8 boards, and 2.1 assists while shooting 36.6%.

Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum Receive High Praise from Jrue HolidayOn May 13, prior to the Celtics’ game against the Cavaliers, Holiday spoke highly of Tatum and Brown as leaders.

“Man, just talking, yapping, being as loud as possible, as communicative as possible,” Holiday told NBC Sports Boston’s Abby Chin in an exclusive interview. Just the way they’re yelling at everyone is going to make us a stronger team and help us develop as individuals. It has been fantastic, then.

Despite their notoriety, Holiday stressed, nobody knows how they play the game.

While Holiday acknowledged that Tatum and Brown have lofty goals for themselves, she felt that others placed too much pressure on them, to the point that they felt like outsiders. However, I don’t think I could manage it the way they do, or even come close to matching their level of dedication and perseverance when playing each day, regardless of how well or poorly they do.

Their professionalism has always been evident, and I’m simply thrilled to be a part of the same team as them. People put a lot of pressure on them, and I don’t know how they deal with it.

Game 4 Victory: Jrue Holiday Gives Al Horford High PraiseFollowing the Celtics’ victory over the Cavaliers, Holiday was critical of Horford’s play in Game 4 and the entire season.

“His progress is wonderful. Holiday assured reporters that he relies on Al to defend him whenever Garland gets past him, and that he has done so in every game. “Al is handling everything. When Mobley is on him defensively, he acts as the anchor; offensively, he is open for three-point shots and must make them, a task he has been performing admirably. Al is up to the task, and we put a lot of faith in him.

Since Kristaps Porzingis hurt his calf in the first round, Horford has had to step in and play for him. Afterwards, the Celtics’ record improved to 4-1.
