Derrick White

Derrick White's defensive prowess may grab headlines, but his late-game shooting can be just as lethal. With the Celtics trailing the Heat after erasing a 22-point deficit in their February 6, 2026 thriller, White positioned himself in the right corner. The guard caught a swing pass from new teammate Nikola Vucevic, rose up with a defender closing out hard, and buried a pullup three-pointer with 1:31 left to put Boston ahead 98-96 for good. White finished with 21 points, 5 assists, and 4 blocks as the Celtics secured their fifth straight win.
