Derrick White has officially been ruled out for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals for personal reasons. According to Keith Smith of Celtics Blog, White and his wife are expecting the birth of their child.

With White unavailable, Payton Pritchard will still have a significant role off the bench. Given Marcus Smart is returning from a foot injury, Pritchard could have an even larger workload than what he had in Game 1. Aaron Nesmith will also likely get some minutes again.
