How Jrue Holiday is a Defensive CHEAT CODE

Jrue Holiday is a Defensive Cheat Code because of his amazing defence. Jrue is easily one of the best defenders in the NBA.

Jrue is also a cheat code at what I like to call “getting skinny”. He starts in a low stance, but when he wants to fight over the top of the pick, he gets upright and as skinny as he can so he can slide right through. This is all about getting physical and sneaking in that airspace

Jrue also has something which he needs to get better at, but we will get to that in a bit. Here are a few other reasons I like his defence:

Helping / “digging”

On pretty much every single ball screen , he bunny hops up and gets on top of that hip. He sets a physical tone. The trick he uses is to use one of his hands to stay tight to the defender at all times. This works on two levels.

Secondly it provides a psychological advantage because the dribbler is always feeling pressure and chaos.

Jrue also has 6’7 wingspan which he uses to block shots.
