Day One in the Books: D White Poised for Another Breakout Year

Day One in the books D White finna have another breakout year

Derrick White, a guard for the Boston Celtics, has been nominated to Team USA’s roster for the 2016 Paris Olympics in place of Kawhi Leonard.

After leading the Celtics to the NBA Finals, White decided to join the national team. With an average of 15.2 points, 5.2 assists, 4.2 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, 1.0 steals, and 2.7 three-pointers per game, he was a crucial part of Boston’s championship run.

A massive four-year deal extension for $125.9 million was just inked by the 30-year-old, ensuring his future with the Celtics.

White will not be making his debut appearance for side USA. In 2019, he played in the FIBA World Cup and helped his side to a seventh-place finish, averaging 5.9 points per game.

I can’t wait to get back on the national team and play alongside Tatum and Jrue [Holiday] since so much has transpired since 2019. Mozzart Sport reports that White told the Abu Dhabi media that he was looking forward to getting back on the court with the team and doing their thing.The NBA champion spilled the beans to the press about his life since winning the ring and accepting the offer from USA Basketball to replace Kawhi Leonard.

“I received a call from the national team and of course, I immediately talked to the family to see if and how it could all be done,” said the coach.

Thаnk yоu sо much! I аm thrilled. When (аdriаn) Wоjnаrоwski tweeted, I reаlized there wаs а pоssibility оf being оn the squаd. аfter а brief discussiоn with my аgent fоllоwing the seаsоn’s cоnclusiоn, I pаtiently wаited. “They reаched оut tо us, аnd we’re here tоdаy,” White went оn tо sаy.

White said that he and his family had previously made arrangements, but that everything changed after he received a call from the national team.

By now, we should have arrived in Cabo, a resort city near the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, where I had planned to take a vacation. However, I am here at this very moment. Although I intended to take it easy after winning the title, I jumped right to work when the national team called.
