Justin Holiday News, Rumors, Updates - Denver Nuggets

Not part of rotation Tuesday Holiday didn't play during Tuesday's 119-107 win over the Lakers.

Impact Holiday was really the Nuggets' only free-agent signing this offseason, and he was expected to help fill the void left by Bruce Brown and Jeff Green. However, Holiday didn't see any action during the regular-season opener, as Denver opted to give extended minutes off the bench to Reggie Jackson, Christian Braun, Zeke Nnaji and Peyton Watson instead. Holiday's three-and-D skill set should help him carve out a rotational role eventually, but at the moment, he doesn't need to be rostered in standard leagues.

Coming off bench Holiday will come off the bench for Thursday's preseason game against the Clippers.

Impact The Nuggets are mixing it up and will give Hunter Tyson a look next to Denver's usual starters of Jamal Murray, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic. With Michael Porter (ankle) questionable for Opening Night, Holiday could potentially have a decent role to open the season.

Contributes across board Holiday chipped in 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-7 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, three blocks and two steals across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 120-116 win over the Jazz.

Impact Holiday scored in double figures for the first time since Feb. 23, and he also made an impact with his effort on defense. He tied his season high in both blocks and steals and has now notched a pair of steals in back-to-back matchups. Holiday logged a season-high 31 minutes Tuesday evening, so it'll be worth keeping an eye on his workload going forward, especially if he continues to put up numbers on the defensive end.

2023 NBA Buyout Market Tracker: Dragić to sign with Bucks

Starting Sunday Holiday will start Sunday's matchup against the Lakers, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

Impact Holiday was lights out from three during his Dallas debut and will slide into the starting lineup for his second game with his new squad, pushing Josh Green to the bench. Holiday's ability to space the floor should open up more space for Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving to operate.

Lights out in Dallas debut Holiday supplied 15 points (5-7 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds and two steals in 21 minutes during Thursday's 142-116 victory over San Antonio.

Impact Holiday joined Dallas ahead of the All-Star festivities and was deemed available for the final contest before the break but ultimately didn't see any minutes, making Thursday's appearance his first as a Maverick. The sharpshooter certainly took advantage of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving's playmaking prowess and knocked down a quintet of open triples, marking a season high. Holiday's fit in Dallas' scheme is evident, and he should continue to garner a decent role off the bench, though fantasy managers likely can't rely on such an efficient shooting performance on a nightly basis.

Available Friday Holiday (recently traded) is available for Friday's game against Miami.

Impact Holiday has been cleared to make his team debut a day after being traded from Atlanta to Houston. He wasn't part of the Hawks' rotation before he was dealt and is unlikely to have a very significant role with the Rockets.

Hawks add depth, acquire Bey for 5 2nd-round draft picks

Traded to Houston Holiday and Frank Kaminsky were traded from the Hawks to the Rockets on Thursday in exchange for Garrison Mathews and Bruno Fernando, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Holiday hasn't been part of the Hawks' rotation recently, but he'll get a change of scenery for the final few months of the 2022-23 campaign. Although he consistently saw double-digit minutes off the bench for Atlanta earlier this year, he'll likely struggle to find much playing time in Houston since the team will likely prioritize the development of Jabari Smith and Alperen Sengun down the stretch.

Gets 24 minutes Wednesday Holiday (COVID-19 protocols) finished with five points (2-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound, one steal and one block across 24 minutes in Wednesday's 113-89 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Holiday cleared health and safety protocols and was available to play in Monday's 121-114 loss to the Thunder, but it wasn't until Wednesday that he cracked head coach Nate McMillan's rotation. The veteran wing hasn't been a regular fixture in the rotation this season, but that may change in the short term while the Hawks are down three starters in De'Andre Hunter (hip), John Collins (ankle) and Dejounte Murray (ankle).

Now listed as available Holiday (COVID-19 protocols) is now listed as available for Monday's matchup against the Thunder.

Impact Holiday was previously listed as out for Monday's game, which would've marked a third straight absence due to COVID-19 protocols, but it appears he's now in line to suit up against the Thunder. Despite being listed as available, it's unclear if Holiday will crack the rotation.

Still out Monday Holiday (COVID-19 protocols) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Oklahoma City, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Holiday remains in the league's health and safety protocols and will be unavailable for a third consecutive game. His next chance to suit up will be Wednesday against the Knicks.

Ruled out Wednesday Holiday has been ruled out Wednesday against Orlando due to the league's health and safety protocols, Brad Rowland of Locked on Hawks reports.

Impact Holiday wasn't listed on the Hawks' initial injury report for Wednesday's matchup, but he'll be unable to suit up due to the league's health and safety protocols. It's unclear whether he'll be forced to miss additional games, but his absence leaves the Hawks particularly shorthanded in the frontcourt since Jalen Johnson (ankle) is doubtful.

Finds rhythm from deep Holiday racked up 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 21 minutes during Monday's 104-101 loss to the 76ers.

Impact Holiday had been held scoreless in four of his last five games coming into Monday's contest, but he evidently found his shooting touch, scoring 12 of his 16 points from beyond the arc. Holiday has struggled to see consistent playing time for this Atlanta team, but the absence of Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) and Jalen Johnson (ankle) has opened up a few opportunities for the forward to show what he can do.

Gets DNP-CD vs. Bucks Holiday did not see the floor during Monday's win over the Bucks.

Impact Holiday hasn't been effective for Atlanta this season. The veteran is shooting just 33.9 percent from three -- where he makes his living. He's still contributing a solid 1.2 steals in 19.4 minutes per game. But he has the worst point differential on the team, with the Hawks allowing 10.6 more points per 100 possessions with Holiday on the floor. Coach Nate McMillan has maybe seen enough, and he opted not to play Holiday on Monday. Instead, AJ Griffin saw 17 minutes and Jalen Johnson saw 15 minutes.

NOVEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Leads team from deep Holiday contributed 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt) across 23 minutes during Monday's 117-98 victory over the Bucks.

Impact Holiday surpassed the double-digit scoring mark off the bench, leading the Hawks with a team-high four threes in the blowout victory. Holiday set a new season-high in shots made from three, with his previous season-best mark occurring Oct. 21 against Orlando (three makes). In 10 contests this season, Holiday has scored 10 or more points three times.
