Derrick White - Struggles to score in lossWhite had nine points (3-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists, two blocks and three steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 112-111 loss to Detroit.
ImpactWhite drew the start in place of Marcus Smart (ankle), but he struggled with his shot and failed to score in double figures for the first time since joining Boston. However, he was still able to make an impact by stuffing the stat sheet elsewhere. The 6-foot-4 guard registered multiple blocks and steals in the same game for just the fourth time during the campaign. He also dished out six assists, his most as a member of the Celtics. White figures to be a key part of coach Ime Udoka's rotation during the stretch run and should continue to offer fantasy managers solid production in numerous areas.

ImpactWilliams has drawn back-to-back starts in place of Robert Williams (calf) and has scored in double figures in each of those games. The third-year forward's 17 points were his highest total since a Dec. 13 win over the Bucks. On the season, Williams is averaging 7.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 23.2 minutes per game and is expected to return to his usual bench role following the All-Star break.

ImpactOlynyk has struggled to find any consistency following a knee injury and a stint in COVID-19 protocols, but he showed signs of bouncing back with his best performance since Jan. 19. The 30-year-old averaged 12.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 steals in 22.9 minutes during the first 10 games of the season and will look to get back to that level of consistent production when the Pistons resume action following the All-Star break.
