White III

White led Syracuse in scoring last year with 18.5 points per game and broke the school’s all-time record for most 3-pointers in a season, but was not selected in the 2017 NBA draft. White will be a training camp body for the C’s, but it is highly unlikely he makes Boston’s final 15-man roster. He’ll most likely join the team’s G-League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws.

Even after the 3-for-1 trade for Kyrie Irving, the Celtics still have some great depth on their roster.

White scored 15 points in his NBA debut last Wednesday, but logged just one minute of action on Friday night. He will likely be shuttled back and forth between the Hawks and the G-League over the final two months of the season.

It’s unlikely he’ll play.

He’s not going to play.

White had a nice showing in the final game leading up to the All-Star break with 15 points, three triples, two boards, one assist and a steal, but that stat line came with three of the five Atlanta starters watching from the sidelines. With the regulars expected to be back in action on Friday, it’ll be tough for White to have a repeat performance.

Ersan Ilyasova is moving on from the Hawks and DeAndre Bembry isn’t expected to play on Monday due to an abdominal strain, so White could get some minutes. Through two games and a total of 18 minutes, White has 15 points, three triples, two boards, one assist and a steal with the Hawks.

Minimal fantasy impact here. Over the Hawks last four games, White is averaging 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds in 16.0 minutes.

Even with several injuries in Atlanta, White isn’t going to crack the rotation most nights.

Atlanta’s G-League affiliate is in the playoffs, so these guys could be doing a lot of movement between the clubs over the final few weeks of the season. None of them have fantasy value, though.
