Jrue Holiday‘s second NBA championship may be the most important of his basketball career.

Earlier this week, Holiday was a guest at the grand opening of a new Raising Cane’s restaurant in downtown Boston, where he spoke about his success on the basketball court, playing in the city, and more. The fast-food chicken finger chain celebrated its “Golden Birthday” by opening an all-gold restaurant in Beantown, and Holiday, along with three-time World Series champion and Boston Red Sox legend David Ortiz, helped ring in the special occasion with a private press conference and ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Holiday, who won his second NBA championship with the Boston Celtics and his second Olympic gold medal this summer, was the perfect guest to help ring in the restaurant’s “Golden Birthday,” given his success on the court. In a conversation with Complex, the 34-year-old discussed the championships he won with the Milwaukee Bucks and the Celtics while revealing which was the bigger moment for him.

The Bucks’ championship run in 2019 ended a 50-year drought for the team based in Milwaukee, and that in itself is a huge accomplishment. However, Holiday helped the Celtics secure their league-record 18th championship and broke the tie with their greatest rivals the Los Angeles Lakers. According to Holiday, winning with the Celtics in Boston had that edge over the win with Milwaukee as he got a ring with the team he hated growing up.

“They were both different, to be completely honest,” said Holiday, comparing the two championships. “The one in Milwaukee was my first one and again, 50 years. That’s significant and crazy, but I’m from LA, and I grew up a Laker fan.”

He continued, “For one, putting on the green was a bit weird for me on the first day, and then once I kind of got used to the green, we win the championship. If you hated a team as a Laker fan, it was Boston, but I think once I got acclimated to the city and the fans, this one is like there are no words to describe the feeling after you win that championship.”

The two-time NBA All-Star was traded to the Celtics in 2023 and became one of the key factors in the team’s championship run this year. Holiday averaged 13 points, 4 assists, and 6 rebounds in the NBA Playoffs and had several stellar games, including Game 2 of the Finals, where he put up 26 points and 11 rebounds to help the Celtics secure the win.
