Coby White: For My Father

Posted Jun 17, 2019
Coby White: "I remember my dad being the rock of our family. He always did everything he could to provide for me, my brother and sister, and our mom. It was never easy — he worked the graveyard shift at the factory near our house in Goldsboro, North Carolina — but he never complained. My dad was also the first person to put a basketball in my hands." (The Players' Tribune)
