For years and years, Jrue Holiday finds himself considered one of the best defenders in the NBA. His impact at the Milwaukee Bucks in recent years has also been recognized. Still, the 32-year-old didn’t receive the DPOY trophy.
A true anomaly for the Dallas Mavericks prodigy Luka Doncic. After the defeat of the Mavs against the Bucks (105-106), the Slovenian insisted on underlining the defensive impact of Holiday. A beautiful tribute.
“Jrue is one of the best, if not the best defender for me in the NBA. I think he doesn’t get a lot of praise for his defensive qualities. difficult to challenge him.
I’m actually surprised that he was never voted Defensive Player of the Year or something like that.” threw Luka Doncic in front of the media.
A nice speech and deserved compliments for Jrue Holiday. For years, he has established himself as a reference on this side of the floor. And he played a major role in the victory obtained by the formation of Wisconsin in 2021.
On the other hand, he could indeed end his career without any individual trophy.
Jrue Holiday, you’re the real DPOY
