Team-high seven assists White posted 21 points (8-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and seven assists over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 115-93 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact White got the start again with Robert Williams still out (hamstring) and scored over 20 points for the first time in nine games, knocking down 66.7 percent from the field. He also dished out a team-high seven assists in the win. This also marked the third straight game that he's played at least 32 minutes, and that might continue until the team is back to full strength. Regardless of that though, White remains worthy of a roster spot in most leagues.

If the Celtics are better with Derrick White on the floor, why did the guard sit so much in crunch time? - The Boston Globe Coach Joe Mazzulla admitted it may have been a mistake to not play White down the stretch in Sunday's double-overtime loss.

MARCH 7, 2023 • BOSTONGLOBE.COM

Pedestrian production in 2OT loss White logged 12 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Sunday's 131-129 double-overtime loss to the Knicks.

Impact Despite earning a start due to the absence of Robert Williams (hamstring), White still posted modest stats in the 2OT loss. White has certainly cooled off after his hot mid-February run, when he posted 21.4 points, 6.5 assists and 1.7 steals-and-blocks per contest over an eight-game span. With Marcus Smart (ankle) back, White no longer finds himself orchestrating the offense. The C's have lost three of their last four but will look to turn things around Monday night in Cleveland, the second game of a back-to-back.

MARCH 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Sunday White is starting Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Impact White came off the bench in four of his last five appearances but will join the starting lineup with Robert Williams (hamstring) out Sunday. Williams is expected to miss 7-10 days due to his injury, so it's possible White remains in the starting lineup over the next few games.

Scores 16 in 24 minutes White chipped in 16 points (6-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 24 minutes during Friday's 115-105 loss to Brooklyn.

Impact Malcolm Brogdon missed Friday's game due to right ankle soreness, so it was a bit surprising that White didn't play a bit more given his success against the Nets. Regardless, White has been a valuable fantasy contributor lately, posting top-40 value in nine-category leagues over the past 10 games with 18.1 points, 5.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 2.5 three-pointers.

Returns to bench White will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact White drew a spot start Monday with Jaylen Brown (personal) sidelined but will rejoin the reserves with Brown active Wednesday. In his last two appearances off the bench, White has averaged 17.5 points, 2.0 assists and 2.0 rebounds across 25.0 minutes.

MARCH 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Decent showing in starting unit White closed Monday's 109-94 loss to the Knicks with 13 points (4-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one block across 32 minutes.

Impact In addition to playing despite being listed on the injury report with an ankle issue, White also joined the starting unit with Jaylen Brown (personal) unavailable for the tilt. White posted a decent all-around effort in the contest but failed to connect from beyond the arc. His nightly fantasy outlook improves when Brown sits, but White is likely bound to a smaller bench role on nights when Brown is available, which is expected to happen Wednesday.

Will start Monday White (ankle) is available and will start Monday's contest against the Knicks, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact As expected, White will suit up after initially being listed as probable and start in place of Jaylen Brown (personal). Before the All-Star break, White drew 13 straight starts and posted 18.5 points, 5.6 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 0.8 steals in 34.1 minutes during that stretch. He should garner similar usage versus New York.

FEBRUARY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with ankle sprain White is probable for Monday's game against the Knicks due to a right ankle sprain.

Impact White shouldn't be sidelined by the issue, but it may be something to monitor to see if it impacts his effectiveness. If he's indeed available, the veteran guard should slide back into the starting lineup due to Jaylen Brown missing the contest due to personal reasons. White drew 13 straight starts heading into the All-Star break and posted 18.5 points, 5.6 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 0.8 steals in 34.1 minutes during that stretch.

Efficient scoring off bench White notched 18 points (7-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, two assists and one block across 25 minutes during Saturday's 110-107 victory over Philadelphia.

Impact White played a significant role off the bench Saturday, knocking down three of four shot attempts for seven points in the first half before going 4-of-5 from the field over the final two quarters as the Celtics pulled out the win in the final seconds. The point guard missed only two shots on the night and has now scored at least 15 points in eight of his last nine contests. He's also knocked down at least two threes in five straight.

Another double-digit game off bench White had 17 points (6-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes during Thursday's 142-138 overtime victory over the Pacers.

Impact White finished three points shy of reaching the 20-point mark for the fourth time in his last five games. White has tallied at least 15 points on 20 occasions this year.

FEBRUARY 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to bench role White isn't starting Thursday's game versus the Pacers.

Impact White started 31 of the Celtics' past 32 games while the team was dealing with numerous injuries, but with Boston close to full strength, he'll retreat to a reserve role. Across eight appearances off the bench this season, White is averaging 7.0 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.9 steals-plus-blocks in 21.3 minutes, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him garner a larger role than that given the way he was playing heading into the All-Star break -- 20.1 points and 6.0 assists in 35.2 minutes over his past 11 games.

Will play Wednesday White (ear) will play Wednesday versus the Pistons, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

Impact Head coach Joe Mazulla said White has a hole in his right ear drum but was evaluated by specialists in Milwaukee, who cleared him to suit up, per King. White's been on an absolute tear lately, posting 20.1 points, 5.8 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.0 blocks across his past 11 appearances. His usage may dip a bit with Jayson Tatum (illness) and Marcus Smart (ankle) both available Wednesday, but White should still see a sizable role until Jaylen Brown (face) returns to action.

Probable vs. Pistons White (ear) is probable for Wednesday's matchup against the Pistons, John Karalis of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.

Impact White had trouble hearing out of his right ear following Tuesday's loss to the Bucks, but after seeing a specialist, it's been determined that he'll likely be able to play in the Celtics' final game before the break. White has been on a tear of late, averaging 20.1 points, 5.8 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.0 blocks across his past 11 appearances.
