I did son. And I might have sold him short.
If you bum up his minutes and give him the green light, dude will easily be averaging 15-17 PPG, 5 rebs , 5 asts with All-NBA D for years to come..
Like some have said before: the Jrue Holliday ceiling is attainable, which is basically All-Star caliber guard..

D White has the potential to be the top +/- starter on the Spurs next year. If Dejounte and Walker can both be net positive players, they win 50+ games easily.
The Derrick White story will probably help Gonzaga's Brandon Clarke, who has a similar history.
Their stories really do sound similar. I like Clarke, and I sure wouldn't cry if the Spurs could draft him. It would be even nicer if he could exceed expectations the same way white has.
A few months ago, Clarke at #19 didn't seem completely out of the question. People said he was undersized and "old." But now, the Spurs would almost definitely have to move up to grab him... I could see it-- he's a type the Spurs typically like-- defensive minded, productive, bucking-the-odds, smart...
(Walter) White takes what he ing wants
He did, but whether intentional or not, you essentially equated Aldridge and DeRozan to Duncan and Parker and called them losers.
Well, Manu did carry them dudes, tbh. , TD even stole his '05 Finals MVP too.
Oh, he is undersized to play PF. And he can't shoot the 3 for , which is not good for a SF in today's NBA. He had a horrible, horrible shooting stroke - for the first two years of college that was common knowledge. He completely broke down and re-made his shot, and he still didn't shoot 3's for . He made some reasonable improvement in his FT%. I've got a couple of friends who think he will actually get better with some more work on his stroke, and the Spurs have one of the best for that. If they draft him, he's a year in Austin. If he's got the work ethic he's supposed to have, and follows White's pattern, he could be a good pickup. But I still think anyone picking him in the lottery is out of their minds.
He's one of those guys who is going to swing on how he looks in the combine.
SAgirl bought out all of Kyle Anderson's shirt.
