Very quickly into his time with the team, Spurs fans could tell that Derrick White was going to be special. The combination of his size and quickness enable him to score from distance, dish to open teammates and finish at the rack.
As he took over as floor general for the Austin Spurs, White developed his game by learning from his coaches and adjusting to professional competition. It wasn’t long until the 24-year-old became the overwhelming leader of a championship team. He continued his excellent play into the Summer League with a particularly dominant showing in the Utah League.
