Derrick White starting in place of Marcus Smart (ankle) for Celtics in Monday’s Game 4

The Boston Celtics listed Derrick White as their starting point guard for Monday’s Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals versus the Miami Heat.

What It Means:

While Smart’s status was up in the air throughout the day, ultimately he was not cleared to play in tonight’s contest. With Smart sidelined, White should step into a big workload for Game 4.

Our models project White to score 27.1 fantasy points versus the Heat tonight, with 12.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.7 assists in 30.3 minutes on the court.
