Fans mercilessly roast Derrick White’s hairline after a rare photo of him without headband goes viral

Wearing the headband has been a staple in Derrick White's in-game look whenever he suits up for the Boston Celtics. When fans saw a photo of him without one, they couldn't control themselves and had to share a laugh as they commented on his hairline.Headbands help most NBA players hide their receding hairlines. One of the most notable players to do such a thing is LeBron James, who wore a headband from the start of his career until the 2014-15 season. Fans still roast him for not letting his hair go and just shaving his head like other great players.Now, fans have found a new target, White, who recently went viral for his hairline. A photo of the 6-foot-4 defensive guard was posted, and fans were quick to point out his receding hairline.NBA Memes@NBAMemesDerrick White's hairline did a huge stepback 6910216Derrick White's hairline did a huge stepback 😂 https://t.co/4Bp8oW6vT5We've compiled some of the funniest reactions from fans, who went all out on White's hairline.Owen Hastings@OwenHastings08@NBAMemes It hit a James harden stepback @NBAMemes It hit a James harden stepback 😂PJ Elliott@bigfizzyflex@NBAMemes Bro asked for a fade and got a fade away lmaooo@NBAMemes Bro asked for a fade and got a fade away lmaooo𝙳𝚊𝚣𝚣𝚕𝚎@nagz___@NBAMemes2151@NBAMemes https://t.co/jbBCMFNoRqLouAye-IFB everyone@LouAyeBurner@NBAMemes Bro walked into the barber and said “gimme the elongated skull”4045@NBAMemes Bro walked into the barber and said “gimme the elongated skull” https://t.co/w3bF1HGNPEaveryasherave@averyasherave@NBAMemes It’s been doing that, dude has the top 5 worst hair in all of professional sports.@NBAMemes It’s been doing that, dude has the top 5 worst hair in all of professional sports.Mikey@MikeyBolt69@NBAMemes Damn!

Derrick White contributed a lot to that, as he's always been one of the league's best perimeter defenders. This time around, it could be a similar case for their team's success.He's one of their most reliable contributors this season, averaging 9.9 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.1 assists while shooting 44.1%, including 38.2% from long distance. The former San Antonio Spurs player has worked on his shot from 3-point range and has become a threat from deep.Back when he was with the Spurs, he wasn't a potential risk to hurt teams from outside the arc for his inconsistent shooting. But all that has changed as he has become a better 3-point shooter with the Celtics.During the 2022 Finals, he shared the task with Marcus Smart of locking up Steph Curry. He fared well, but Curry's talent was too much for him to handle. Still, the former Colorado star was able to keep up with the best players on the biggest stage.Now that he's able to start the season with the team, he'll get a chance to start things on a good note. With Derrick White's help, Boston (24-10) is in first place in the Eastern Conference.Also read: Where does the number of Boston Celtics championships rank amongst NBA teams?
