How is it for veteran Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday playing with an injured finger? The UCLA alum has been taking the court for the Celtics with a rare injury that is called ‘mallet finger,’ a malady related to a torn tendon and sometimes a broken bone at the tip of a finger that can take a while to heal and cause a fair amount of pain.
Holiday has been largely effective despite the injury as he has suited up for Boston in recent contests, and the Celtics guard recently shed some light on how all that has been going for him. “I take drugs, so it works out,” joked the vet guard in a recent interview captured for us by the folks at the “CLNS Media Boston Sports Network” YouTube channel.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what he had to say about playing with an injured figure.
