#Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer said the medical team cleared Jrue Holiday to return to action after he turned an ankle, but they’ll see how he’s feeling tomorrow. – 10:45 PM

#Hawks now up 100-85 with 8:44 to go in this one. Jrue Holiday is hopping and George Hill gave the team a bit of talk before Mike Budenholzer joined the huddle. – 10:05 PM

Jrue Holiday turned his right ankle, tied his shoe tighter and he’s going to try to keep playing. – 10:01 PM

Jrue just strung together grown-up baskets to keep this one quite close. – 9:45 PM
Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
Jrue Holiday has five turnovers thus far, tying a season-high (Brooklyn). – 9:38 PM

Jrue Holiday’s basket was good and Giannis Antetokounmpo gets a free throw off Aaron Holiday’s off ball foul. – 9:35 PM

I’m sure Stephen Curry will use this as motivation later tonight, as Jrue Holiday has passed Curry for 53rd on the all-time assists list with 5,450. – 9:33 PM
Kevin Chouinard @KLChouinard
Aaron Holiday has the task of applying full-court pressure on the brother, Jrue. – 8:54 PM
Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
#Bucks lead the #Hawks 36-25 in Atlanta. Giannis Antetokounmpo played just three minutes, scoring 4 points and committing two offensive fouls. Grayson Allen (9), Bobby Portis (8), Jrue Holiday (7) and Brook Lopez (6) picked up the scoring slack for Milwaukee. – 8:38 PM

Jrue Holiday just passed Hall of Famer Kevin Garnett for 54th on the all-time assists list with that dish to Bobby Portis. – 8:33 PM

More on this storyline

In the fourth quarter, Bucks point guard Jrue Holiday rolled his right ankle. He was cleared to return to action, but head coach Mike Budenholzer said that they’ll know more on Tuesday. “I’m alright – twisted ankle,” Holiday said postgame. “We’ll see how it is tomorrow. You always gotta see overnight what happens. So, we’ll see.” -via Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel / November 8, 2022
“Yeah, starting off with that confidence and feeling like you’re building the right habits, playing the right way, winning in different ways, if it’s blowouts or close games or fighting back,” Bucks guard Jrue Holiday said. “It feels good to be 8-0.” “We’re just playing our style of basketball,” Bucks forward Bobby Portis said. “Not really worried about the outside noise and not really worried about what nobody else got going on, worry about what we have going on, holding each other accountable and try to be the best team we can be on a nightly basis.” -via ESPN / November 5, 2022
