Derrick White hasn't erased his three-point shooting issues, but they still haven't proven to be a problem for the Boston Celtics. It would just be awesome if his elite floor spacing came back.
Matt John of Hardwood Houdini argues that Derrick White's ongoing three-point shooting slump is frustrating but not a major concern for the Boston Celtics. Through eight games this season, White is shooting just 29.3% from beyond the arc, down from 32.7% last season. Despite these struggles from distance, his overall field goal percentage has risen to 42.5%.
The writer notes that White's shooting dip has not hindered Boston, as the team holds a 6-2 record and ranks eighth in offensive rating. Furthermore, the Celtics maintain a plus-5.6 offensive rating with White on the court, highlighted by his clutch play in a recent win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
