Yes,they prefer white players-——and the Celtics prefer black players.
Works out very well.

I don’t know if he favors white players. Belichick likes players who are mature, persistent, tough, team players and smart, as well as having skill and physical attributes like speed and strength. If you staff a roster just going by skill, speed and strength, you’ll probably get a disproportionately black team. If you evaluate other factors, you get a more representative team.
Malcolm Butler, for instance, is a Belichick kind of player.
