“I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t really hear of the term mallet finger until people were telling me I had mallet finger,” Holiday said before the Celtics hosted the Denver Nuggetts at TD Garden. “They just told me that I broke my finger.”

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday gave an update on his injured hand Sunday afternoon. Prior to the team's tilt against the Denver Nuggets, Holiday shared he was just as surprised by the diagnosis as anyone else.
