Randy White (basketball)
Randy White (born November 4, 1967) is an American former professional basketball player.
A 6'8", 240 pound power forward, White was a star at Louisiana Tech 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 NBA legend and Louisiana Tech alumnus Karl "The Mailman" Malone) who White was often compared since they shared many traits such as starring for Louisiana Tech University. He was then selected by the Dallas Mavericks with the eighth pick of the 1989 NBA draft and played five seasons with them, averaging a career-high 9.7 points per game in 1992–93. He later played in the CBA and in the international leagues, including a stop with European powerhouse Maccabi Tel Aviv and in Italy with Pfizer Reggio Calabria (in 1994–1995).
