DERRICK WHITE (BOS)
STAR UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: TWO-WAY COMBO GUARD
A late first-rounder outta Colorado, Derrick White goes hard on both ends for Boston; pretty good athlete, plays both backcourt spots effectively; offensive profile: likes to drive (can get into the lane and score with either hand), float it up & knock down Js - whether wide open or off a pull-up; utilizes 6'4 frame well: taller than a lot of point guards, matches up w/ some twos; good court vision, willing passer w/ the ability to find rolling bigs & shooters; 2nd Team All-Defense in 2023: D. White’s adaptable & makes multiple efforts - understands defensive schemes, consistently keeps his matchup at bay; vital role player w/ upside - took another leap in Boston: won NBA title in 2024! - White’s perpetually a key Star UnderDOG for the C’s
