White scored 23 points (7-20 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding three assists, three blocks, two rebounds and a steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason loss to the Raptors.
It was a big night at both ends of the court for the 30-year-old guard, as the Celtics gave some of their regulars a normal workload for the first time this preseason. White is coming off a career-best 2023-24 campaign that included 2.2 steals plus blocks per game in the regular season, and he figures to be a key piece in Boston's title defense this season.
