Can Boston Celtics point guard Derrick White make the NBA’s 2024 All-Star team in a crowded Eastern Conference? After coming over in a trade from the San Antonio Spurs last February, White has gone from a luxury reserve player to an indispensable starter in Boston.
With his two-way excellence and central role on the NBA-best Celtics this season, the Colorado native makes a strong case as one of the top guards in the league this season. White is the NBA’s best defensive guard right now, and has also become a key cog on offense. He’s an efficient scorer, underrated playmaker and provides much-needed floor spacing.
The Colorado alum has the ideal blend of skill, smarts and experience to complement Boston’s stars.
The hosts of the CLNS Media “Celtics Beat” podcast linked up with Spotrac’s Keith Smith to break down his All-Star case. Check it out above!
