Failure is not an option in the playoffs, and it’s evidently clear that it’s not an option in the mind of combo guard Derrick White either. After getting showed up by Jamal Murray in the fourth quarter of Game 2, the San Antonio Spurs’ breakout star dropped a career-high 36 in a 118-108 victory on Thursday evening.
The Spurs finally returned to form, making 48.9 percent of their attempts from the field including 7-of-18 shots from three-point land. Don’t let White’s huge outing distract you from the fact that the team locked in as a whole tonight.
