Derrick White Unavailable For Sunday's Game
Derrick White (ankle) is out for Sunday's season finale with the Washington Wizards. Fantasy managers should expect the 29-year-old to be available for the playoffs. The entire Celtics starting five is unavailable, plus Al Horford (toe) has been ruled out. Payton Pritchard will run the backcourt for now, while Jaden Springer and Svi Mykhailiuk will see more time on the court.

Derrick White Out For The Season Finale
Derrick White (neck) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The Celtics already locked up the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will allow the club to sit White and the rest of their core producers. As a result, Payton Pritchard, who had 15 points and 10 assists in his last start, should be a popular option for DFS managers versus one of the worst teams in the National Basketball Association.

Derrick White Won't Suit Up Versus The Magic
Derrick White (ankle) won't play on Wednesday against Orlando. The Celtics secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so the team can afford to give their core performers a night off, with Jayson Tatum (ankle), Jrue Holiday (shoulder), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), and Al Horford (knee) already ruled out. In addition, Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable. As a result, the C's may lean heavily on Payton Pritchard and Baylor Scheierman to do most of the heavy lifting out of the backcourt on Wednesday night.

Derrick White Expected To Suit Up Versus New York
Derrick White (toe) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks. The toe injury is nothing new. Fortunately, he hasn't missed a game since March 15. White has averaged 20.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 5.0 assists in three meetings with New York this season. However, with Jayson Tatum (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), and Jaylen Brown (knee) questionable, White may be even more potent on the scoring end, assuming he's cleared to play.

Derrick White Cleared For Action Friday
Derrick White (knee) will be active on Friday against the Miami Heat. He was initially listed as questionable for the game due to a left knee contusion. White has provided steady fantasy value throughout the season, and he has been particularly impressive during the last couple of weeks. Over his past six appearances, White has averaged 20.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.3 steals. With Jaylen Brown (knee) sidelined on Friday, White may receive more shooting opportunities.
