Justin Holiday

Justin Holiday is currently on the roster for the Pacers but is set to hit free agency this offseason as an unrestricted free agent. The oldest of the three Holiday brothers had one of the best seasons of his career with the Pacers this season. He averaged 8.3 points, 3.3 rebounds,1.3 assists per game, and had an effective field goal percentage of 56.6 percent.

Holiday shot a career-best from behind the 3 point line, shooting 40 percent and finished in the top 20 in the NBA in three-point field goal percentage. Holiday was a vital part of the second unit for the Pacers providing three-point shooting and defense at the wing position.

The Pacers had him on a one year deal worth around 4 million dollars. He is likely due a larger payday this offseason with teams coveting three-point shooting and defense. A team may be willing to dish out some money for Justin Holiday, making it difficult for the Pacers to re-sign him. If Kevin Pritchard can find a way to retain him it would be a win for the Blue and Gold.
