NBA player Derrick White of the Boston team publicly states that Memphis city is his least favored city in the league.
Derrick White, a member of the Boston Celtics, is gearing up for a significant season ahead. With Jayson Tatum set to miss the entire 2025-26 season due to a torn Achilles tendon, White is expected to take on a larger offensive role.
White, who developed as a player in Boston and has his children born in the city, expressed happiness with his life there. However, he has named Memphis as his least favourite city in the NBA, citing the city's hotel as the worst in the league. Despite this, White mentioned that there is good food in Memphis.
White's career has been on the rise, as he averaged a career-high 16.4 points per game in the previous season. His impressive performance earned him a contract extension with the Celtics, who have not missed the playoffs since the 2013-14 season. The team went on to win a championship in 2024.
With Jaylen Brown set to be Boston's first scoring option, White is expected to average between 18-20 field goals per game in the upcoming season. The Celtics believe their roster is capable of winning another championship, and White's increased role could play a significant part in achieving that goal.
White and his friend Alex Welsh host the White Noise Podcast, where they discuss various topics, including White's experience in the NBA. White only visits Memphis once a year as a member of the Eastern Conference.
The Celtics signed White for the 2025-26 season, and he is expected to be one of the team's top scoring options. With the roster set and the season fast approaching, White is ready to make his mark on the court and help the Celtics defend their championship title.
