Scheduling conflict

I had a chance to sit down with freshman guard Jrue Holiday the other day and ask –among other things you’ll read about in my column tommorrow — about the big night for the Holiday family tonight. Jrue and older brother Justin, a sophomore at Washington, are playing for first place in the Pacific 10 Conference tonight.

His mother Toya and younger sister Lauren open the Southern Section girls basketball playoffs tonight as Campbell Hall (21-1) hosts Sacred Heart of Jesus. Lauren is a freshman, but she leads the team in scoring at 17.0 points a game and rebounding (8.9)

“I’d rather go watch their game,” Jrue said of his mother and sisters’ playoff opener. “It’s too bad they’re on the same night. But I think their game will be over in time to come watch the end of our game.”
