Impact White filled in as the starter at point guard for Marcus Smart (ankle) for the second time in the series. In contrast to his quiet Game 1 performance during which he scored just three points and notched four assists, White made a big impact Monday, tallying a 13/8/6 line while adding three of the team's four steals. The Celtics are hopeful that Smart can return for Game 5, but White has at least built some momentum if he's pressed into a starting role again for that contest.

Won't play Game 2 White is listed as out Thursday for Game 2 of the Celtics' Eastern Conference Finals series with the Heat due to a personal matter.
Impact According to Brian Robb of The Springfield Republican, White flew back to Boston following Game 1 in anticipation of the birth of his first child, as his wife's scheduled due date had been set for sometime in May. While Marcus Smart (foot) was sidelined for Game 1 in Miami, White started at point guard and produced three points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four assists and one block across 29 minutes in the Celtics' 118-107 loss. Smart has been upgraded to probable ahead of the Game 2 road game, but White's absence robs the Celtics of a critical depth piece in their backcourt.

Impact Boston turned to White over Grant Williams throughout the fourth quarter, resulting in outscoring Milwaukee by 15.

He's likely to see a similarly large role in Game 5 on Wednesday.
