Drains five threes in win Sunday
White finished with 21 points (6-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and two steals over 39 minutes during Sunday's 114-98 victory over the 76ers.
Analysis
White didn't have his best shooting performance, but he still knocked down five threes -- his best output since Feb. 4 -- and reached the 20-point mark, a feat he's now accomplished in three of his last four appearances. Even though Jaylen Brown is set in stone as the Celtics' go-to option on offense, White has done a good job as a secondary scoring weapon. The veteran guard is averaging 17.4 points while hitting 42.2 percent of his threes over his last five appearances, making two or more three-pointers each time.

Knocks down four three-pointers
White finished Friday's 148-111 win over Brooklyn with 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-8 3Pt), seven assists, three rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 32 minutes.
Analysis
White did all of his scoring damage from beyond the arc Friday, and it marked the third game in a row in which he connected on four three-pointers. He also co-led the Celtics with two swats, and he has logged at least two blocks in six of his last eight outings. White is averaging 1.5 blocks per game this season, which is tied for 10th best in the NBA and is second behind Scottie Barnes (1.6) among non-centers. White is enjoying a career year, but his usage would seemingly take a hit if Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is cleared to return, though the latter would presumably need significant time to ramp up his in-game conditioning after a lengthy rehab.

Nearly triple-doubles
White finished with 22 points (9-18 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, three blocks and one steal across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 97-81 win over the Suns.
Analysis
White took advantage of some extra usage due to Jaylen Brown (knee) getting the night off, narrowly missing a triple-double in the process. White continues to lead the Celtics in fantasy value for nine-category formats, posting averages of 17.1 points, 5.7 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.5 blocks and 2.8 three-pointers.
