Overview
- White has 98 blocks through 75 games and needs two more to hit the 100 mark.
- He has already made 206 three-pointers, and reaching 100 blocks would make him the first player to post 200 threes and 100 blocks in one season.
- He was listed Thursday as a game-time decision with a right knee contusion for Boston’s visit to the Knicks.
- Jaylen Brown is out with Achilles tendinitis, which could push Boston to play White in a matchup that would help secure the No. 2 seed.
- Only Dwyane Wade has reached 100 blocks in a season among players 6-foot-5 or shorter since the NBA began tracking blocks in 1973–74.
