Derrick White on Las Vegas Summer League, Olympics with his Boston Celtics teammates

USA Today20 hours ago
The second episode of Boston Celtics point guard Derrick White is out. In the newest episode of the "White Noise" podcast, the University of Colorado - Boulder alum and his cohost Welsh took a deep dive into what White did last summer at the 2024 Paris Olympics on his way to winning a gold medal with the US National Team (and how he missed his own epic birthday bash in Baja California to do it).
They also touch on Las Vegas Summer League and what it is like to play in it vs. attend as an established player or fan in the bleachers, meeting Deion Sanders at a Buffaloes game, and even a premature welcome for now-traded forward Georges Niang to the Celtics.
They even get into the fact that White still has never gotten a technical foul in the NBA, and why at least one of his teammates in Boston won't fully respect him until he does. Check it out below!

Final NBA approval for Boston Celtics reportedly to be approved in next two weeks

For fans of the Boston Celtics, the sale of the team to new majority owner Bill Chisholm is old news at this late hour of the 2025 NBA offseason. But in a strictly technical sense, the deal is not quite done, with the NBA Board of Governors needed to put their stamp of approval on the ownership transfer. But recent reporting from Sportico's Kurt Badenhausen and Scott Soshnick relates that the sale is about two weeks away from being finalized with the NBA. According to Sportico, the sale will cross that final finish line "late next week or early the following week," per multiple sources. The vote, comprised of the other 29 team governors, could also end up taking place virtually, with presential meetings not required for the transfer to be approved. The $6.1 billion sale set records for the valuation of an NBA team at the time of the sale, and will see Chisholm officially take on the mantle as majority owner that also has ArcelorMittal exec Aditya Mittal serving as the second-largest stakeholder in the ownership group. Private equity group Sixth Street will reportedly also have a major stake in the Celtics new ownership group. Listen to "Havlicek Stole the Pod" on: Spotify: iTunes: YouTube:
