April 26 () -- Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday was named the recipient of the NBA's Twyman-Stokes Teammate of the Year Award on Tuesday, the league announced.
It is the second time in his NBA career that Holiday has captured the honor, which is voted on by the players and has been presented annually since the 2012-13 season. The Twyman-Stokes Award recognizes a player for selfless play, on- and off-court leadership as a mentor and role model to other NBA players and dedication to the team.

The 31-year-old Holiday helped guide the Bucks to their first NBA championship in 50 years last season, then went to Tokyo to help Team USA win the gold medal during the Summer Olympics.
