Derrick White's All-Star case grows as he rewrites Celtics record books
Miami Heat v Boston Celtics | Brian Babineau/GettyImagesThere aren't many firsts left to accomplish in the Boston Celtics' history. Yet Friday night at TD Garden, Derrick White did something no player to suit up for the NBA's original monarchy has ever accomplished.
White put a game-high 33 points on the board in Boston's 129-116 win over the Miami Heat. He dished out six assists, grabbed five rebounds, and his four blocks helped minimize Miami's production around the rim.
The ninth-year guard also knocked down 11/20 [55 percent] of his shots. That includes converting on nine of his 14 attempts from behind the arc [64.3 percent].
