The Boston Celtics would see their nine-game winning streak come to an end on Wednesday night, falling to the Miami Heat 124-103 in what was the Heat’s sixth consecutive win at the time. While Miami would see their winning streak come to an end Thursday night on a buzzer beater by Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant, the Heat are firmly in the playoff race, and one Celtics player would not be surprised if they see Miami again.After Wednesday’s loss to the Celtics, guard Derrick White spoke to reporters in the locker room and said he wouldn’t be shocked if they faced the Heat in the playoffs this year. Since the start of this decade, the Celtics have faced the Heat four times in the playoffs, three times in the Eastern Conference Finals (2020, 2022, 2023), and in the first round last season, with both teams winning two series each. For White, he has seen Miami each year in the playoffs since joining the Celtics, and it would not shock him to see them again.You never know what could happen,” White told reporters post-game. “Us playing Miami in the playoffs would not surprise me, because it’s happened every year I’ve been here. We just try to control what we can control, and once we figure out who we play, we’ll be ready to go for them.”
