We're talking Spurs here.
You realize that happens to a number of players on the second game of the season every year, right?
We're talking Spurs here.
He should get opportunities to play in this stretch. Between Kiwi, Kyle, 40 years old Manu, minutes restricted Tony, etc...
Hoping he gets 10-15 minutes and has a solid all around game tonight. Would be great to see him exceed Spurstalk expectations.
I hope so, I think he could be a decent player.
If Pop hadn't of pulled that hack-a-simmons sh** that 76ers game would've been the first that White was the difference in a win, imo.
I actually really liked how he played considering his lack of experience. He can score inside better than any other Spurs guard under 35. He's active around the boards, and he plays good D. It's practically criminal that he doesn't get more minutes. I understand that he was supposed to replace Green after a Kyrie trade, but Pop using guys like Paul and Hillard over Derrick is really making the pick look worse than it likely is in actuality. The team seems to have drafted a future rotation player, and that's good at 29. It's just a shame they didn't look harder for a big if they weren't going to draft Bell. Joff should be paying the Spurs to have him on the roster.
I also liked what White showed not just considering the inexperience, but how little run he has had (chemistry). Playing Hilliard and BP3 over him has indeed been ? and all I come up with to explain that is that the Spurs need to make a decision on Hilliard next summer and I think he’s played well enough in the dleague to raise some interest. If the Spurs don’t give him a contract next summer he will be a FA and who knows what happens. With BP3, it seems they are aware that offensively he’s rather behind but are banking on him for some defense to back guys up through the season. They really need to make a decision on him as well.
Meantime White will be under team control for 4 years if they want him and projected to get a real look next summer league and next season.
The thing tgat upsets is that White has looked better than BP3 and Hilliard in extremely small samples so one thinks that if extraneous reasons weren’t intervening, he might have played more this season.
Obviously the Joff signing was a![]()

Completely agree with the spot and this part, i think he's better overall player than BP3 or Hilliard and also than Forbes who gets a lot of minutes.
Or minutes on the court for Austin is better for White than minutes on San Antonio bench?
I'm not sure I agree, but you can certainly make that argument. But I don't think that point holds in games where they have already recalled White. I could see putting him in Austin most of the time. But if he's active and with the big club, I think he should be playing.
Offcourse it's better to play in Austin than sitting on San Antonio bench but i think he could play 10-15 per night for the Spurs actually. For example Forbes is playing 20 minutes per game, put White in the same situation and i'm pretty confident he will be good.
White's injury while Parker was out was extremely poor timing, similar to Murray's injury last year.
Please play this guy already.
He's been the definition of average in the G-League. Not sure why people are clamoring for him. Must be his similar looks to Fathead I guess....
I don't even like White but I can't imagine playing him for more than 8 minutes could be a worse option than giving Forbes 41 minutes.
Indeed Jyra.
idk about white but would like to see Blossomgame get a chance in the Spurs
Josh Hart is balling for the Lakers right now. Great job, Drunkford
Just don't ever see him being long for the Spurs. At least with Murray you knew/know the potential is there. White just feels like a panic pick when the Spurs' guy (Kuzma) got sniffed out and snatched by the Lakers. Feel much more intrigued by Blossomgame.
This guy will be 28 years old when he hits free agency once his rookie contract is up
I know RV will get a pass "because it was a late pick" and so forth... but there was so much talent available during that pick in this deep draft it's insane. Buddy won't see playing time anytime soon either with Murray and Mills here for the next 3-4 years and Parker publically stating he wants to play 5 more years with this reduced role.
Can't till Bron bron takes over as GM. He really can't do much worse.
He would probably be in the gleague like White
We’ll talk about it when he will play some minutes like hart
Your a ing idiot have you even seen him play?

You edit your comments and still can't get the proper "You're". You ing idiot.
That comment was made a month ago when he was ting it up. He's been better but his numbers are nothing to brag about. He's an old ass rookie with not much potential. Deal with it autist.
