Vooch hasn’t had a chance to face two-way standout point guard Jrue Holiday as a member of the Bulls yet. But there could be plenty of meetings in the future between Vooch and the Bulls and Holiday and the divisional foe Milwaukee Bucks moving forward. Vooch and Holiday have met on 13 different occasions in the regular season and none in the playoffs.

There’s also a chance that the Bulls could meet up with the rolling Bucks in the playoffs this year. The Bucks are trending to be one of the top three seeds in the Eastern Conference this year, alongside the Philadelphia 76ers and Nets, while the Bulls could be a lower seed after the play-in tournament.

Moreover, in the 13 regular season meetings between Vooch and Holiday, the former of the two held the edge with a record of 8-5. Most of the meetings between Vooch and Holiday came when the latter of the two was a member of the New Orleans Pelicans.

And in those 13 meetings in the regular season, Vooch averaged 18 points per game, 13 rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block. He shot 49.3 percent from the field, 35 percent from beyond the arc, and 73.7 percent from the free-throw line.
