Derrick White’s injury does not appear to be a major concern, as he has been listed as questionable for the Boston Celtics’ upcoming game against Cleveland on Sunday, which will determine first place in the Eastern Conference, according to Souichi Terada of MassLive.
While White is uncertain for the game, he is not expected to miss significant time. Along with White, several other key players, including Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford, and Jrue Holiday, are also listed as questionable for the matchup.
Terada suggests that the Celtics may carefully manage the minutes of these players, with the possibility of staggering their appearances as they prepare for a grueling stretch of five games in just seven days.
This hectic schedule could lead to more strategic rest periods for key contributors to ensure they remain fresh for the busy week ahead.
The team’s depth and ability to adjust on the fly could prove essential as they aim to maintain their high level of play throughout this challenging sequence.
