According to Keith Smith of Spotrac.com, Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is available for Monday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks.

Sun Mar 2917:05Derrick White Won't Play Sunday
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) won't play on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. The team has ruled him out after initially listing him as questionable for the game. Boston will also be without Jaylen Brown (Achilles) on Sunday, so Jayson Tatum and Payton Pritchard should receive heavy usage on the offensive end. Meanwhile, players like Baylor Scheierman and Hugo Gonzalez are set to log more minutes.

Sat Mar 2820:26Derrick White Could Miss Hornets Game
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against Charlotte after managing a right knee contusion that has recently appeared on the injury report. If he is held out, Pritchard would likely take on more ballhandling duties after finishing with 36 points, six three-pointers, seven rebounds, and four assists in his last outing, reinforcing his value as a strong DFS and daily-lineup option. Jayson Tatum (Achilles) and Jaylen Brown (Achilles) could also see slight usage bumps if available.

Fri Mar 2714:54Derrick White is Cleared for Friday's Game
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. White will shed the questionable tag and suit up despite dealing with a right knee injury. The expectation is that White will be asked to take on a larger role offensively with Jaylen Brown (calf) ruled out. This season, White is averaging 17.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists across 34.2 minutes per game. He should see a slight uptick in value with Brown sidelined, but is a must-start regardless of Brown's status. Fantasy managers should make sure White is active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Thu Mar 2619:54Derrick White Iffy Against Hawks
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against Atlanta after logging 33 minutes in Wednesday's win while managing a knee bruise. If White is unavailable, Payton Pritchard would likely take on a larger role after finishing with 14 points, four three-pointers, two rebounds, one assist, and one block in 33 minutes off the bench. Pritchard is already rostered in most leagues but would see a usage bump, while Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown (calf), if cleared to play, could also take on more playmaking duties.

Sat Mar 1408:47Derrick White Expected to Play Saturday Against Wizards
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the Wizards after missing one game with a right knee contusion. The veteran is expected to resume his starting role, likely sending Payton Pritchard back to the bench after filling in the last game. White has been a reliable fantasy contributor when available, averaging 21.4 points, 2.4 three-pointers, 3.8 rebounds, and 5.6 assists over his last five outings in 34 minutes per game. His return should help settle Boston's guard rotation, with Payton Pritchard going back to his usual bench scoring role while Jaylen Brown takes on a bit less playmaking.

Thu Mar 1220:30Derrick White Misses Thursday's Game
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) will join Jayson Tatum (Achilles) on the sidelines on Thursday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. White has been downgraded from questionable to out ahead of tip-off. Boston also had Payton Pritchard (neck) on the initial injury report, but he has been cleared to play. With White unavailable, Pritchard will play a huge role in the backcourt and is expected to lead the offense with Jaylen Brown. Meanwhile, there are minutes available for Sam Hauser, Baylor Scheierman, and Hugo Gonzalez.

Thu Mar 1207:46Derrick White Questionable Thursday Due to Knee Issue
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) might miss Thursday's showdown against the Oklahoma City Thunder after the team listed him as questionable for the game. White has been part of the Celtics lineup in all but two games this season, but a right knee contusion might force him to sit out Thursday. With Jayson Tatum (Achilles) also questionable, Jaylen Brown and Payton Pritchard (neck) may have a very heavy offensive workload. At the same time, Baylor Scheierman, Huge Gonzalez, and Sam Hauser will be candidates for more playing time.

Fri Jan 2319:25Derrick White is Resting on Friday
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (rest) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This appears to be a routine maintenance day for White during the first game of the back-to-back set. The assumption is that White will be back in the starting five for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Baylor Scheierman will take over in the starting five for only his third start of the season. During his last start, Scheierman posted nine points, seven rebounds, and four assists across 32 minutes of action. He'll offer some low-end streaming appeal for Friday's slate. He figures to return to being irrelevant in fantasy formats once White returns.

Tue Dec 2 202513:39Derrick White Will Play Tuesday Against New York
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (calf) was upgraded from probable to available for Tuesday night's rivalry game against the Knicks. White was originally listed as probable for the game after he sat out Sunday's game against the Cavs, which was the second game of a back-to-back for Boston. Sam Hauser started in his spot but will likely return to the bench on Tuesday. His efficiency has been shaky, but his counting stats remain strong. He's averaging 16.0 points per game, 4.0 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.7 steals. White will rejoin the Celtics' lineup, confirming that his Sunday absence was mostly just a precautionary absence.

Tue Dec 2 202508:21Derrick White Likely Available Tuesday
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (calf) is listed as probable on the injury report, indicating that he is expected to return to the lineup on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. White sat out the second leg of a back-to-back on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to a calf issue. Sam Hauser got a start in White's place and is set to move back to the second unit for Tuesday's contest. White has posted some awful shooting numbers this season, but he is still averaging 16.0 points per game, only 0.4 points shy of his career high. Across 33.3 minutes of action, White has also notched 4.0 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.7 steals. He is having a career year on defense.

Sun Nov 30 202514:37Derrick White Ruled Out on Sunday
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (calf) won't play on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was on the injury report ahead of Saturday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves for the same issue, a right calf contusion. However, the 31-year-old was available for that one, finishing with 16 points, five assists, and two blocks. White's next chance to suit up will be on Tuesday versus the New York Knicks, with Payton Pritchard and Jaylen Brown in line to lead the way offensively on Sunday. Sam Hauser, who had 14 points and six rebounds on Saturday, might also find himself in the starting lineup, making him an attractive option for fantasy managers and DFS participants.

Sat Nov 29 202512:26Derrick White Expected to Suit Up Versus Timberwolves
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (calf) is in line to play on Saturday in Minnesota. The 31-year-old has played as well as expected throughout the 2025 campaign. However, he hasn't benefited from the absence of Jayson Tatum (Achilles). In fact, he's seen reduced production in several statistical categories. Still, White remains a must-start fantasy option in all formats, assuming he plays, despite the difficult matchup on tap. He could be even more productive if Jaylen Brown (back) can't suit up because of low back spasms.

Sat Nov 1 202519:37Derrick White Available Saturday
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (neck) will play in Saturday's contest against the Houston Rockets. Following a 35-minute shift on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers, White was placed on the injury report with a probable tag. However, the team has now upgraded him to available. White's shooting struggles continued on Friday night, as he went 6-for-16 from the field to finish with 15 points. For the season, White is shooting barely 32 percent from the field and has nailed only 25.4 percent of his three-point attempts. White's campaign has started poorly, but he has compensated for his shooting woes with strong contributions in other areas, averaging 3.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 1.5 steals.

Sun Oct 26 202514:04Derrick White Good to Go Against Detroit
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (wrist) will play on Sunday against the Detroit Pistons. The 31-year-old has played well despite the C's sitting winless after two games, averaging 20.0 points, 4.0 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals. He's struggled from deep, going 29.2% from downtown. However, White should get out of his shooting funk at some point down the road. Jaylen Brown (hamstring) might not play on Sunday afternoon. If that's the case, White may be in line for more scoring opportunities. Fantasy managers will likely see White make appearances on the injury report due to the wrist sprain moving ahead, although it shouldn't keep him off the floor unless he suffers a setback.

Mon Oct 13 202511:06Derrick White Stuffs the Stat Sheet Against Cavaliers
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White was up to his usual all-around heroics in the team's preseason win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday. The veteran combo guard finished the game with 16 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and three blocks across 22 minutes while shooting 4-for-9 from the floor and 2-for-7 from three. White has been a huge part of the Celtics' success ever since he came to Boston, and his value for category leagues has been immense. As one of the best guards for rebounding and block numbers, he'll likely be a hot commodity again across all fantasy leagues.

Thu May 15 202510:02Derrick White Erupts For 34 Points As Celtics Stay Alive
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White scored a game-high 34 points on 9-for-16 shooting in Wednesday's must-win clash against the New York Knicks, playing a key role in a 127-102 win. White was hot offensively right from the start and dropped seven three-point bombs on the Knicks with 13 attempts. As usual, he was also highly impactful on the defensive end, racking up three blocks. Additionally, White's line included three rebounds and two assists for the night. White stepped up big time on Wednesday night, offering Celtics fans hope that everything is not lost with Jayson Tatum's (Achilles) injury. With Boston still in survival mode for Friday's Game 6, we can expect another busy night from White.
Thu May 8 202509:30Derrick White Close To Another Double-Double In Game 2
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White nearly collected his second double-double in Wednesday's 91-90 loss to the New York Knicks, scoring 20 points on 6-for-17 shooting and grabbing nine rebounds. He also had five assists and a team-high two blocks in 40 minutes of action. White has been productive to start the series, but everyone on the Celtics roster appears to be struggling with their shooting at the moment, including him. He has nailed just 34.3 percent of his attempts from the field against the Knicks, while going 29.6 percent from outside. Despite his poor efficiency, White was tied for the most points on the team Wednesday night and is sure to play a big role again on Saturday, when the series continues in the Big Apple.

Sat Apr 12 202521:55Derrick White Out For The Season Finale
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (neck) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The Celtics already locked up the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will allow the club to sit White and the rest of their core producers. As a result, Payton Pritchard, who had 15 points and 10 assists in his last start, should be a popular option for DFS managers versus one of the worst teams in the National Basketball Association.

Wed Apr 9 202517:56Derrick White Won't Suit Up Versus The Magic
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (ankle) won't play on Wednesday against Orlando. The Celtics secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so the team can afford to give their core performers a night off, with Jayson Tatum (ankle), Jrue Holiday (shoulder), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), and Al Horford (knee) already ruled out. In addition, Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable. As a result, the C's may lean heavily on Payton Pritchard and Baylor Scheierman to do most of the heavy lifting out of the backcourt on Wednesday night.
