Coby White scores 46 after learning his late father was an honorary guest for game

Posted Dec 28, 2017
Coby White’s brother Will White called him Tuesday and told him about the first name on Kendrick Williams’ guest list for Wednesday’s game at the John Wall Invitational. Williams, a longtime family friend, listed Coby’s father, Donald White, as his No. 1 guest. Coby lost Donald to cancer on August 15. White parlayed that emotion into 46 points in an 85-63 win over Kinston. (USA Today)
