The newest Boston Celtics guard, Jrue Holiday, took part in his first practice Wednesday since arriving earlier this week after a trade with the Portland Trail Blazers.

We could see the Celtics make an effort to score more from the post this season given the size, strength and shooting ability of some of their players. Holiday is one player who could do plenty of damage from that area of the court, and he was working on that Wednesday after practice.

Check it out in the video below:

Here are a few more videos from Holiday working out at the Auerbach Center:

Holiday averaged 19.3 points per game and shot 38.4 percent from 3-point range for the Milwaukee Bucks last season.

He was dealt to the Blazers in the blockbuster trade that sent Damian Lillard to the Bucks. The C's were able to get him a few days later from Portland for a package of Malcolm Brogdon, Robert Williams III, the Warriors' 2024 first-round pick (top-four protected) and Boston's unprotected 2029 first-rounder.

Holiday will be introduced to the media during a press conference Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET, which you can watch in the video below:
