Happy birthday, Derrick White

Ever since the video posted of Gregg Popovich calling to welcome him to the Spurs organization, I’ve had nothing but good vibes about Derrick White.

Derrick was drafted 29th overall in 2017 and spent much of his rookie season leading the Austin Spurs to a G-League Championship.

His sophomore season saw a foot injury that, along with Dejounte Murray’s season-ending ACL injury, postponed the youth movement that many would argue is the most promising backcourt in the NBA.

The most underrated backcourt in the NBA comes from the Spurs.
