Derrick White explained what happened when his teeth got knocked out, and why he returned vs. Sixers

If you’ve ever put off going to the dentist when you know you have a solid reason for being there, you’re not alone.

Derrick White had a temporary dental bridge that he was supposed to swap out for a permanent one.

Then, he got elbowed in the face, and the bridge fell to the floor.

“So, I got hit in the face,” White explained. “But, they were temporary and I was supposed to go in by like two weeks ago, but I kept pushing it off to get like my permanent ones. But, I’m going to go tomorrow.
