A deep dive into Derrick White’s dominant 4th quarter

Derrick White had quite a night as the Spurs beat the Hawks on Wednesday. He put up some pretty rare numbers, but was happier about the win than the stats. The thing is, as we’ve covered before, Derrick’s level of activity and involvement is as close as this team has to a bellwether of the quality of their play. This game was no exception, and late in the 4th quarter, with the game still very much in doubt, Derrick asserted himself, scoring or assisting on 12 straight points, as the team rebuilt its lead and put the game away at last.
