Stop looking at the number and start looking at the players earning roughly the same. He's not out of place in that group.
He's a good player, at 73M, I don't know that he's that valuable.

His defensive awareness is incredible. He could easily lead the league in charges drawn. Most of which are we he helps as opposed to his own man. That and his weak-side blocks enable him to cover up teammate errors at a level that a good rim protector would.
Agreed. He's a superb defender, even clearly rusty in other aspects last night.
He'd have gotten 85+mil this summer tbh.
Good mentor for Vassell to add more facets to his own defensive toolbox.
Compare contracts around the league and always use the MLE and max as your frame of reference. The cap has gone up a lot and 17 million a year aint what it used to be.
He's the best defensive guard in basketball. Marcus Smart is really good but considered untouchable by media because he plays in Boston, but Derrick White has the best hands, instincts, and positioning of any 1 or 2 in basketball.
A player who leads all guards in contest and is 2nd in blocks and charges drawn last season with a per 36min of 16 5 5 is not worth 18 per year? Okay, how many guards are more effective than him on both ends and earn less than him?
We saw two versions of Derrick White last season. The first is a viable starter well worth the four-year, $73 million contract extension he inked last week. The second is a burgeoning star who would be massively underpaid if he’s here to stay...
ing great. The same freaking toe.
Derrick White. AKA Mr. Glass
Unlike Murray(who's paid a similar salary to White), Derrick actually plays both ends of the court. Murray hasn't been a good defender ever since he came back from his injury.
Surgery. Out indefinitely.
Cut the toe off like Ronnie Lott did his finger
well that didnt end well
Got to give him credit on getting PAID
