Too little, too late in loss
White recorded 26 points (9-26 FG, 5-16 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists and three blocks in 45 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to Philadelphia in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
The Scoop: White had easily his most productive game of the postseason, albeit in a losing effort. Despite continuing to struggle with his shot, he scored at least 20 points for the first time in the playoffs and for the first time since mid-March. Saturday's Game 7 loss brings down the curtain on a disappointing end to the season for the Celtics, who had a 3-1 series lead. Across 77 regular-season appearances, White averaged 16.5 points, 5.4 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 combined steals-plus-blocks in 34.1 minutes per tilt.
