Career
A 6"8", 240 pound power forward, White was a star at Louisiana Technical University, where he averaged 21.2 points and 10.5 rebounds as a senior and earned the nicknames "Mailman II" and "Mailkid" (a reference to National Basketball Association legend and Louisiana Technical alumnus Karl "The Mailman" Malone) who White was often compared since they shared many traits such as starring for Louisiana Technical University. He was then selected by the Dallas Mavericks with the eighth pick of the 1989 National Basketball Association Draft and played five seasons with them, averaging a career-high 9.7 points per game in 1992-1993. He later played in the College of Business Administration and in the international leagues, including a stop with European powerhouse Maccabi Tel Aviv and in Italy with Pfizer Reggio Calabria (in 1994-1995).
