Terrico Reshard White (born March 7, 1990) is an American professional basketball player. A native of Memphis, Tennessee, he was drafted by the Detroit Pistons with the 36th overall pick in the second round of the 2010 NBA draft after playing two collegiate seasons at Ole Miss, where he earned SEC Rookie of the Year in 2009.

Since 2012, White has played in Serbia, Turkey, Israel, Russia, Korea, Australia, Bahrain, Puerto Rico, Taiwan, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico. Between 2018 and 2020, he won a three-peat of championships, the first in Korea with Seoul SK Knights and the next two in Australia with the Perth Wildcats. He was named KBL Finals MVP in 2018 and NBL Grand Final MVP in 2019.

High school career

White attended Craigmont High School in Memphis, Tennessee. As a junior in 2006–07, he averaged 22 points, seven rebounds, three assists and three steals per game. He was named All-Metro, First Team All-State by the Tennessee Writers Association, and was one of the five finalist for The Commercial Appeal's Player of the Year.[1]

In November 2007, White committed to Ole Miss.[1]

As a senior in 2007–08, White was named Tennessee's Class AAA Mr. Basketball. He averaged 27.1 points per game, leading his team in points, field goal percentage, three-pointers, free-throw percentage, and steals. He was also named the District 14-AAA regular season and tournament MVP, and earned Region All-tournament team honors.[2]

College career

White played collegiately for Ole Miss and scored 955 career points and averaged 14.5 points and 4.0 rebounds per game over his two years with the Rebels.

White was selected by the Detroit Pistons with the 36th overall pick in the 2010 NBA draft.[3][6] He went on to average 9.6 points in five games for the Pistons during the 2010 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas.[7] He boasted the best vertical jump (40 inches) of any player during the pre-draft combine,[3] and during the NBA rookie orientation, he became known around the league for his gifted dunking abilities with a YouTube video of a spur-of-the-moment rookie slam dunk contest.[8][9][10] However, during the Pistons' first preseason game, White broke the fifth metatarsal in his right foot and subsequently missed the entire 2010–11 season.[10][11][12]

In December 2011, White was cut by the Pistons following the conclusion of the NBA lockout,[12][13] despite declaring himself 100 percent fit.[10] He subsequently spent preseason with the New Orleans Hornets, but got released again due to back issues.[12] He then joined the Idaho Stampede of the NBA Development League,[14] where he managed 18 games before a stress fracture in his back forced him to sit out the rest of the 2011–12 season.[7][12] In July 2012, he played for the Los Angeles Clippers Summer League team in Las Vegas.[7]

Serbia (2012–2013)

In April 2019, White played for Bahraini club Manama Club during the FIBA Asia Champions Cup 2019 Gulf Basketball Association (GBA) Qualifiers.[33] During the tournament's preliminary round, White had a triple-double with 18 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.[34] He helped Manama reach the final with a 30-point effort in the semi-final,[35] before scoring 21 points in an 82–74 loss to Sharjah in the final.[36]
