The Boston Celtics have won nine of the last 10 contests and are in the midst of a five-game winning streak.

As the team looks to grind out the final 25 games of the regular season, they may see one of their core big men leave this summer. As this player may go in the direction of a large payday, Boston might just have to start looking for another seven-footer this summer.

Another core player wearing a Celtics jersey is Derrick White. With his knack to always show up in some of the biggest moments for Boston, his teammate had some high praise for him coming off a 118-105 win over the New York Knicks.

Other teammates also reacted to a report that White's joy was taken earlier in this campaign.
