    Derrick White leaves games in Charlotte after collision, will not return - CelticsBlog

    Marcus Smart collided with Derrick White four minutes into the Hornets game as he was going toward the sideline. White appeared to have been struck by Smart in the side of the head and neck. This is the play:

    He remained on the floor for several minutes before being helped to the locker room with what appears to be a neck stinger or possible blow to the head. Per NBC Boston’s Abby Chin, head athletic trainer Pat Chasse was examining White’s neck area and he’ll most likely be checked for concussion symptoms.

    White left the game making all three of his shots, including two three-pointers. We’ll keep you up to date here with any news on White’s condition.

    UPDATE: Per the Celtics, White will not return to the game with a neck sprain.
