Derrick White suffers neck sprain, leaves game early following collision with Marcus Smart

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White suffered a neck sprain during the first quarter of action in Boston’s Saturday night tilt against the Charlotte Hornets. The team announced he would not return to the game shortly thereafter.
