Derrick White Named to Celtics Starting Lineup Versus Hornets

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White will start for the second straight preseason game, getting the nod alongside Jayson Tatum, Paul George, Jordan Walsh, and Mitchell Robinson against the Charlotte Hornets. White starred in the previous 144-106 rout of the Philadelphia 76ers, contributing 15 points to a potent offensive attack. Coach Joe Mazzulla continues using these final preseason contests to evaluate rotation depth before Opening Night against the Detroit Pistons.
