Eric White was a 6-8 forward out of Pepperdine University who played for two seasons in the NBA between 1987-1989.
A three-time all WCC first team selection at Pepperdine where he averaged an impressive 14 points and seven rebounds a game across his four years (and 19.3ppg & 7.7rpg in his final year), White was taken with the 65th pick in the 1987 NBA Draft by Detroit.
He was released by the Pistons without playing a game but signed with the LA Clippers in 1988, averaging a solid 10.5ppg and 3.6rpg for the remainder of the season.
The 89-90 NBA season would follow a similar path for White, being signed by Utah but playing only one game, before being picked up again by the Clippers. It's here where he posted his best individual game (24 points, 9 rebounds & 3 steals) against Seattle.
The following off-season he was drafted by Minnesota in their expansion draft, but never played a game for them and that's where his NBA career ended.
