Jrue Holiday, Derrick White make NBA All-Defensive teams, but no Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown

The Stock Exchange deserved it, but what about the Jays?

The so-called “Stock Exchange” — the defensive menace in the Boston Celtics‘ backcourt of Boston guards Jrue Holiday and Derrick White — made the NBA All-Defense Second Team this week, while star Celtics forwards Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum didn’t receive many votes for the honor.

A few days later, we would learn that Tatum would be honored with a First Team All-NBA nod, but Brown is on the outside looking in despite being one of if not the best players on Boston’s roster for much of the latter half of the season and the playoffs. Was the Georgia native snubbed?

CLNS Media reporter Bobby Manning recaps the two defensive teams and where the two Celtics snubs finished in voting on a recent episode of the “Garden Report” podcast. Check it out below!

Boston’s Derrick White lands NBA All-Defensive second-team honors

Derrick White has been named to the NBA’s 2023 All-Defensive Second Team.

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White has been named to the NBA’s All-Defensive second team, an honor for one of Boston’s most important role players. In his first full season with the Celtics, White proved an invaluable contributor on offense and one of the club’s strongest defenders.

The NBA’s All-Defensive first team consisted of the Chicago Bulls’ Alex Caruso, Milwaukee Bucks’ Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez, Memphis Grizzlies’ Jaren Jackson Jr. and Cleveland Cavaliers’ Evan Mobley. Along with White, the All-Defensive second team consisted of the Miami Heat’s Bam Adebayo, Toronto Raptors’ OG Anunoby, Memphis’ Dillon Brooks and Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green.

White joins teammates Al Horford and Marcus Smart in earning All-Defensive honors in the past few years while wearing Celtics green.
