RecapDerrick White amassed 18 points (6-of-10 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 25 minutes in a lopsided win over the Hornets on Friday.
White enjoyed his best shooting performance from beyond the arc in some time, connecting on 4-of-6 attempts after shooting just 29 percent from three-point range through his first eight games. He would’ve notched his second consecutive 20-point effort, but he was able to sit out most of the second half with Boston leading by nearly 40 points. The Celtics close out a four-game week with a road matchup against the Bucks, who White torched for a season-high 24 points earlier this week.
