Mon Dec 02 23:50:00 UTC 2024: ## Celtics Guard Derrick White Leaves Game with Sore Right Foot
**Boston, MA** – The Boston Celtics, enjoying a fully healthy roster for the first time this season, suffered a setback Friday night. Starting guard Derrick White left the game against the Chicago Bulls in the third quarter with a sore right foot, casting a shadow over the team’s recent success.
White, who had a productive performance with 16 points, six rebounds, and four assists before exiting, was initially listed as doubtful to return. While Coach Joe Mazzulla reported that White claimed to be fine post-game, the extent of the injury and potential absence remains unclear. The team will be monitoring his condition closely.
The injury comes after the return of Kristaps Porzingis, who had missed the first 17 games of the season. The Celtics were able to experiment with their rotations before White’s injury, but his absence could disrupt their plans. The severity of White’s foot injury and its impact on upcoming games are yet to be determined.
