Definitely worth it, even if his shooting isn’t always there his defense is outstanding.

    Man how old is he going to be in the 2nd half of this contract? What’s Stevens’ options then?

      Holiday is declining his $37.3M player option for 2024-2025 to sign a long-term deal that’ll take him through the 2027-2028 season. Holiday’s extension saves the Celtics several million on the cap next year and aids in keeping together a talented and expensive core.

      Looks like he declined his player option to do it so he’ll be 37 at the end of it. It’ll depend how much his defense drops off as he ages. He’ll lose some of the athleticism but his defensive IQ will still be there.
