Report: Jrue Holiday to return Sunday after 10-game absence

Jrue Holiday is averaging 16.4 points and 5.4 assists in his first season with the Bucks.

Bucks point guard Jrue Holiday will return to the lineup Sunday to face the Clippers after missing the past 10 games through the NBA’s health and safety protocols, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

The Bucks have gone 5-5 over those 10 games, with four straight victories lifting them to third in the Eastern Conference. As Wojnarowski notes, the Bucks have seen a significant decline in their performance over that span, with their point differential falling from nearly 10 per game to 2.5 points.

Holiday, 30, is averaging 16.4 points, 5.4 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game after the Bucks landed him in exchange for multiple players, three first-round picks and two additional pick swaps as the centerpiece in a blockbuster four-team trade.
