The Boston Celtics might need to provide extra ice packs for their upcoming road trip, and guard Jrue Holiday is perfectly okay with that.
"Teams are challenging us," he said. "I think the game is becoming more physical, which is good. I think that's a benefit for us where we can do the same."
Boston will open their four-game trip with a matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Jan 2 (Jan 3, Singapore time) in Minneapolis.
The Celtics are coming off a 54-point rout of the Toronto Raptors on New Year's Eve. The victory capped an incredible 2024 calendar year for the defending National Basketball Association (NBA) champions, who once again have title aspirations as they turn their focus to 2025.
A late addition to the injury report could make the Celtics' task more challenging.
