Derrick White Out for Boston Celtics Due to Neck Sprain

Derrick White will miss the Celtics' game against the Charlotte Hornets on April 13, 2025, due to a neck sprain. This adds to a series of recent injuries, including a left ankle sprain earlier in April.

White has played 75 games this season, averaging 16.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.7 assists per game. The Celtics have a record of 57-18 when he plays, but only 2-3 when he is inactive. This injury might lead to more playing time for Baylor Scheierman or Jordan Walsh at shooting guard.
