Coach Bud’s eyes grew moist recalling the texts he received from Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, and Tony Parker. Jrue Holiday went from solid to star. Giannis? ‘I’m happy,’ he says. Winning changes so much for the Bucks — but not all ⁦@The Athletictheathletic.com/2901518/2021/1…9:57 AM

Mike Budenholzer on Jrue Holiday: “He has a heel contusion. He’s already been in the MRI and the results have come back. And he’s clean.” – 10:17 PM

Zach Kram @zachkram
The Nets shot 53% on 3s, Jrue Holiday didn’t play in the second half—and the Bucks still won by 23 points. Mighty impressive start from Milwaukee.
(Yes, I know who the Nets were missing.) – 9:57 PM

Alex Schiffer @Alex__Schiffer
Final: Nets fall to the Bucks on opening night 127-104. Kevin Durant with 32 points in the loss. The Bucks took roughly 20 more shots than the Nets and had six players in double-figures. Jrue Holiday’s absence wasn’t felt in the second half. Patty Mills had a strong debut. – 9:57 PM

With Jrue Holiday out, Justin Robinson is checking into the game for the first time tonight with 5:23 left in the third quarter. – 9:10 PM

David Thorpe @coachthorpe
Stepped away at half. Did they say where Jrue is? He tweaked his foot or ankle in Q1. Was it that? – 8:57 PM

Jrue Holiday has been ruled out for the remainder of the game with a right heel contusion. – 8:39 PM

Halftime: Nets trail the Bucks 66-59. Brooklyn got dug in a big hole early and recovered throughout the second quarter. No Jrue Holiday the rest of the game for the Bucks. Patty Mills and Harden with 15 each, KD with 11. – 8:37 PM

Kane Pitman @KanePitman
Jrue Holiday is out for the rest of the night with a heel contusion. It looked like he hurt that on a trip to the basket earlier in the quarter. – 8:35 PM

Oleh Kosel @OlehKosel
Jrue Holiday playing with the confidence of an NBA champion and Olympic standout. Man he looks so decisive out there on BOTH ends. – 8:09 PM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
James Harden had a questionable closeout to give up a Jrue Holiday 3-pointer. Then gets beat downcourt by Giannis Antetokounmpo for a dunk. Granted, Giannis does that to everybody. But the #Nets trail 15-8 early and have given up too many easy points. – 7:47 PM

#Bucks will roll out the five they’ve gone with to start the last few preseason games:
* Giannis Antetokounmpo
* Khris Middleton
* Jrue Holiday
* Brook Lopez
* Grayson Allen – 5:50 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
“The very first practice that Giannis was back, I was out on the sideline. But when I saw that group — Giannis, Khris, Jrue — get together and play together, I could tell that it was a championship team that I was a part of then.” – ⁦@Grayson Allentheathletic.com/2895613/2021/1…2:30 PM
