Derrick White Shines in Celtics’ Bounce-Back Win

White became the first NBA guard with 27 points and 7 blocks, shooting perfectly inside and from the line to lead Boston's 129-119 road win over Utah, the Celtics said.

  • On Tuesday, Derrick White scored 27 points and had a career-high seven blocks to carry Boston Celtics to a 129-119 win at the Delta Center.
  • After a 12-point first-quarter deficit, the Celtics rallied with an 18-2 run led by Luka Garza and reserve threes from Simons, Hauser, and Gonzalez, then sustained momentum as every starter scored early in the third quarter.
  • Inside the arc, Derrick White, Boston Celtics guard, was perfect on 2-point attempts and free throws , scoring 22 second-half points despite making just two of 10 three-point attempts.
  • The victory gives Boston five wins in six games, boosting momentum as the Boston Celtics head to Sacramento Kings on Thursday for the fourth stop of their five-game road trip.
  • Bench production powered Boston as Luka Garza, Anfernee Simons, Sam Hauser and Hugo Gonzalez sparked runs, while Utah Jazz's 13 turnovers led to 23 Celtics points.
