Interesting how a player gets noticed when they are on a winning team. Well done DWhite!
Unfortunately, Boston is probably stuck with him, since he has 3 more years on his deal.

Congrats Derrick. Man outplaying Marcus Smart for the defensive guard, and on a winning team.
Lets hope derrick learned from his disastrous final's appearance last season
It seems like he’s really adjusted and fit in this year, even playing Marcus Smart off the floor. He only had two months with Boston last year before the playoffs.
Congrats to my boy.
I've been singing his defensive praises forever. He didn't magically improve, he's always been this amazing. Big market + le contender helped him finally get the recognition he always deserved.
White is struggling in this series against Philadelphia so far. That's one reason Boston is down.
Derrick's entry into the NBA and his subsequent career have all the earmarks of a feel-good story for anyone who loves basketball and especially for kids who hope to persevere and wind up in the big leagues some day. The mere fact that he's in the playoffs with a team that has a chance to win it all is great IMHO>
Go get that ring Derrick. Spurs fans are with you.
White was obviously a great pick. Nonetheless, this post is pure genius
What a play...Spurs can pick him, even if they traded him. The Celtics just got an absolute return in the trade.
He had so many clutch plays in that game. Way to go, Derrick.

I hate the Celtics but White is awesome.
Wow, Derrick! Really saving these boys’ bacon.
Also, why the is Smart taking the season savings shot at the end?!?
Great to see for D-White! His age didn’t allow for him to be part of the Spurs future plans, but still rooting for him.
Trade made perfect sense at the time, but boy did the Celtics rob us in hindsight.
Not really doe. White staying = no Wemby.
I'd say that the trade was a win-win, tbh.
Nah, we got all those SRPs for Josh!
You can’t evaluate the trade in full until you know whether or not Blake Wesley pans out.
Or what happens with the 28 swap.
I think it was an okay trade, but it would be really nice if Wesley figure it out. I would be pretty happy about having White right now with this team plus Wemby, but I'm not sure the Spurs would've been able to draft Wemby had White stayed on board.
Tatum was the target but he was covered. Smart was coming to just get something up.
