Jrue Holiday eyes bonding opportunity as Pelicans gather in Los Angeles: You might not recognize Jrue Holiday this season. When the Pelicans point guard returns to the court for training camp, there’s a chance he’ll be accessorizing for the first time, sporting a pair of goggles to protect the metal plate inserted below his eye after he fractured his right interior orbital wall late last season. It’s not a requirement, the doctors tell him. But Holiday wants to play it safe. -- The Advocate
