Friday night’s 133-123 Boston Celtics victory against the New York Knicks was a bit of a rollercoaster ride for the home team. At times the Celtics were red-hot on offense and ironclad on defense. During other stretches, Boston was less consistent, and played with visible frustration. Luckily for the Celtics, though, Derrick White stood tall and powered his team to a win.
White led both teams with 30 points on the night. He also registered 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, and 2 steals. In short, he did a bit of everything, including leading the charge during a pivotal third quarter run.
White’s playmaking on both ends kept Boston from coughing up a lead, and the fans at TD Garden took notice.
