Derrick White Cleared to Play Friday Against Atlanta Hawks

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White is officially good to go for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks, according to Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site. White had been dealing with a knee issue, but his availability is a crucial development for a Celtics team missing other key rotation pieces. Expect White to handle his usual workload in the backcourt as Boston seeks to maintain its momentum in the Eastern Conference standings despite dealing with several recent injuries.
