With the Sacramento Kings looking to strengthen their backcourt, Jrue Holiday has emerged as a prime target from the Boston Celtics. Newly appointed GM Scott Perry aims to enhance the team's playmaking ahead of the offseason, eyeing Holiday, along with former Celtics guards Marcus Smart and Malcolm Brogdon, as potential additions. While Smart and Brogdon may offer a more budget-friendly path, Holiday stands out due to his superior skillset and experience.

However, a potential trade involving Holiday could be complicated. Boston would likely need to engage a third team to balance salaries while accommodating a significant trade package that could include players like DeMar DeRozan or Malik Monk. This situation raises questions about the feasibility of such a deal, as the Celtics may prefer the lower-risk options of Brogdon or Smart.
