Celtics' Derrick White: Hands out seven assists
White contributed 16 points (5-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and seven assists across 33 minutes in Tuesday's 125-124 overtime win over the Nets.
White struggled from deep, making just one of seven three-point attempts, but his seven assists helped offset the inefficient scoring. His role as one of Boston's most important players is pretty much set in stone, but he needs to be more efficient with his outside shot to reach his fantasy ceiling. Through four games this season, White is averaging just 12.5 points per game while shooting 31.8 percent from deep, so there's definitely room for improvement there.

Celtics' Derrick White: Will play Tuesday
White (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against the Nets, Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com reports.
As expected, the star guard is shedding a probable designation with a right hip issue. Although it's the second half of a back-to-back, White should be able to handle a normal workload as long as Tuesday's contest remains competitive.

Celtics' Derrick White: Probable for Tuesday
White (right hip) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Nets.
White is a little banged up from Monday's game against the Bulls in which he turned the ball over six times in 18 minutes. However, the veteran guard intends to play through the issue for the second leg of this back-to-back set.

Celtics' Derrick White: Poor showing in win
White chipped in five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 18 minutes during Monday's 134-99 win over the Bulls.
White endured a quiet offensive outing, attempting just four shots while committing six turnovers. However, the veteran guard salvaged some fantasy value with three steals and a block despite playing only 18 minutes in the blowout. White's limited playing time was largely a product of the lopsided score, and he should remain a reliable contributor across multiple categories moving forward.

Celtics' Derrick White: Hands out eight dimes
White produced 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt), one rebound, eight assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 121-113 loss to the Pistons.
White finished second on the Celtics in assists behind Jayson Tatum's 11 while knocking down three triples in an efficient shooting performance. The veteran guard committed four turnovers, but his substantial playing time and involvement as a secondary playmaker provide a solid foundation for his fantasy value alongside Tatum and Paul George.

Celtics' Derrick White: Expected to play Tuesday
White (rest) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against Detroit.
White didn't suit up for Friday's 125-120 preseason overtime win over the 76ers to rest but is expected to play versus the Pistons. The 32-year-old averaged a career-best 16.5 points along with 4.4 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 steals over 34.1 minutes in 77 regular-season games in 2025-26. White did have some trouble finding the net, especially from deep, though he reportedly worked on his shot during the offseason.

Celtics' Derrick White: Makes impact at both ends of court Wednesday
White played 20 minutes in Wednesday's preseason win over the Hornets, scoring 17 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and adding four steals, three rebounds and two assists.
Making his second appearance of the exhibition schedule, the veteran point guard finished second to Jayson Tatum in scoring for Boston while leading a defense that snatched 16 steals in total. White will be looking to improve his efficiency in 2026-27 after shooting a career-worst 39.4 percent from the floor last season, along with a 32.7 percent mark from three-point range that was a steep decline from the prior three campaigns.

Celtics' Derrick White: Solid outing in blowout win
White posted 15 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Saturday's 144-106 preseason win over the 76ers.
White finished behind Jayson Tatum, Payton Pritchard and Hugo Gonzalez in scoring. However, despite the 32-year-old's scoring contributions, he shot just 20.0 percent from deep, which isn't an encouraging sign after he shot a career-low 27.3 percent from downtown during the 2026 Playoffs. With Jaylen Brown now in Philadelphia, White could see more offensive opportunities than ever in 2026-27, and since he worked on his shot during the offseason, his three-point issues might be behind him.

Celtics' Derrick White: Importance in Boston grows
White could see a slight uptick in offensive responsibility following Boston's acquisition of Paul George in exchange for Jaylen Brown and other assets, John Schuhmann of NBA.com reports.
George's ability to space the floor and operate off the ball should fit well alongside White. However, Brown's departure leaves significant shot-creation opportunities that White may be asked to fill. His versatile stat profile already gives him a high fantasy floor, and a modest increase in usage would further boost his value.
