NBA

Holiday was selected in the first round of the NBA Draft. The Philadelphia 76ers selected Holiday with the No. 17 pick in the 2009 NBA Draft. In retrospect, Holiday should have been selected much higher in the Draft. His first 10 years in the league would be split between the 76ers and the New Orleans Pelicans. Holiday would move on from the Pelicans to the Milwaukee Bucks in 2020.

The best years of Holiday’s career arguably took place in Milwaukee. He would help the Bucks win the 2021 NBA Championship.
