BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 49% of leagues
ANALYSIS: The Celtics, as stupid as this sounds, are currently playing the best offensive basketball in the history of the Association. Seriously. It's only been 23 games through Saturday for the Celtics in the 2022-23 campaign but they're putting up a 121.3 ORtg, the best mark ever recorded, and already three full points above the second-best. The next three-point gap is found in 25th place. Just imagine!
White arrived in Boston last season as an under-the-radar acquisition but he's now starting games nightly for the Celtics at SG and working wonders at it. White has appeared in all 23 games starting 18 of them. It's been six straight for him at the two-guard position and he's scored at least 12+ points in each of those with either 2/3 triples in every single match.
On the season, White is slashing 48/45/88 on 7+ FGA and 4+ 3PA per game. That's something only three players are doing right now, and two of them (Al Horford is the other one) play for the Celtics. Now you start to understand the bonkers offensive production.
White is contributing all across the board, mind you. The shooting is ridiculous, yes, but the points are "low" at just 11 PPG. Even then, though, White is adding 3+ RPG and 3+ APG nightly to his line to go with 1.5+ stocks a pop.
No need to mention White is reaching that 11-3-3-1.5 in the lowest playing time (26 MPG) and usage rate (15.8%) among the 40 players currently keeping up all of those marks on a nightly basis. Filter players with fewer than 600 MP through Saturday night and you're left with a 25-man club, including DW.
