The 31-year-old began his NCAA career at the University of Colorado — Colorado Springs, a D2 program, before transferring to the University of Colorado. A two-time Division II All-American while with the Mountain Lions, White was honored as an All-Pac-12 Teamer during his final collegiate season for the Buffaloes.
San Antonio took a flier on White at the end of the first round of the 2017 NBA Draft, with the No. 29 overall pick. He quickly outperformed his draft rank, and emerged as a high-level two-way talent in Boston. Thanks to White's acquisition, the Celtics took off, making their first run to the NBA Finals of the Jayson Tatum-Jaylen Brown era that summer.

"Whether you're a hoops fan or just here for the vibes, this is Derrick like you've never heard him."
A critical contributor to the Celtics' 2023-24 championship season, White will now be leaned upon more than ever this year.
Last season, White averaged a career-best 16.4 points on .442/.384/.839 shooting splits, plus 4.8 assists, 4.5 rebounds, 1.1 blocks and 0.9 steals across 76 healthy contests.
