Missing a slew of key players, the Bulls fought admirably in Saturdays road loss to the Celtics, but came up short all the same.
White, meanwhile, scored 19 points and shot 5-for-10 from 3-point range – good for his 11th straight double-figure scoring output. He also, despite committing four fouls, provided solid on-ball defense and blocked a fastbreak layup by Jaylen Brown that, in the moment, appeared as if it could stymie the Celtics’ offensive momentum down the stretch.
In the fourth, he awoke, scoring 14 points on a combination of four pull-up midrange jumpers and six free throws. As DeRozan tends to in winning time, he looked unstoppable for stretches. The Celtics entered play with the NBA’s worst record in “clutch” games, 8-16, while the Bulls were 12-6 in such contests before Saturday. In that sense, even playing so shorthanded, the loss was a bit jarring.Hill, who signed to a 10-day contract via hardship exception on Friday, played 18 minutes, including closing time.
