Spurs Rookie Derrick White Fractures Wrist

Rookie guard Derrick White, the Spurs’ 2017 first-round pick, has suffered a fractured right wrist, the team announced today in a press release. No timeline for White’s recovery and return has been deterimed at this point, according to the Spurs.

The 29th overall pick in this year’s draft out of Colorado, White has played sparingly for the Spurs so far, appearing in four games for the team. San Antonio has been assigning him frequently to the Austin Spurs for additional work, and White’s injury actually took place during his most recent G League assignment — he fractured his wrist during Saturday’s game against the Texas Legends.

The injury won’t have a major impact on the Spurs’ NBA rotation, since White hadn’t yet earned a spot in that group. Still, it will cost him at least a few weeks of valuable developmental time in San Antonio and Austin. As we’ve seen this season with Dejounte Murray and Kyle Anderson, the Spurs have a habit of taking things slow with their first-round draft picks, gradually easing them into larger roles.
