Derrick White is having an impressive season beyond what anybody could have expected from him.
The announcement of White as a Celtics starter this offseason was overshadowed by the other four starters around him. Acquiring Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday solidified Boston as one of the top teams in the NBA, but White’s play is helping to keep them in that conversation.
The guard combo of White and Holiday is living up to its preseason hype, but White is also coming into his own as a lethal offensive threat. The Celtics’ last two games are tangible proof.
