UNC commit Coby White finds new motivation after the loss of his father

Posted Sep 6, 2017
Of all the words Coby White could use to describe his basketball experience, he’s never picked refuge or escape. Yet here he is on an August afternoon demolishing the competition inside the gym at Greenfield School. Every three-pointer he drains, every hi-five he slaps is a moment he doesn’t have to mull over his reality. On August 15, White lost his father, Donald White, to cancer. (USA Today)
