Hoop Summit FLASHback

It was May 13, 1995, and the very first Nike Hoop Summit was played in front of a CBS national television audience. The USA team was headlined by high school phenom Kevin Garnett who many anticipated would be making tthe then very rare leap from high school to the NBA. It was team of the best high school standouts. Some like Garnett, Stephon Marbury and Shareef Abdur-Rahim went on to represent the U.S. in the Olympics, others like Robert Traylor and Antawn Jamison went on to NBA careers. Oddly, none of those talented players finished the 1995 Hoop Summit game as the USA’s leading scorer as the Americans took an 86-77 victory over the World team. That honor belonged tto Albert White. Whatever happened to Albert White? Check it out.

He’s played for USA Basketball. He’s also played in the NCAA, CBA, USBL, and some other professional leagues overseas. Currently he plays in the KBL- the Korean Basketball League.

He wwas listed as measuring 6’5″ and weighing 210 pounds.

He hailed from Inkster High School in Michigan and was a prized recruit of the University of Michigan. His high school stats spoke clearly to his dominance – 1,352 career points and 1,100 rebounds.

USA Today (first team) and Parade Magazine (second team) both listed him as an Prep All-American in 1995. He played in the McDonald’s and Magic Johnson Roundball high school All-American games, and even tallied 11 points in both.

Albert White also boasted of international experience. He helped the U.S. capture a gold medal as a member of the 1994 USA Basketball Junior World Championship Qualifying Team. That U.S. squad journeyed to Argentina and returned home with an unblemished 8-0 record aand the gold medal, and White averaged a team fifth best 11.3 ppg. and 3.5 rpg. He also tallied a team best 11 made 3-point field goals, shooting 11-24 (.458) for the tourney. He poured in a team high 22 points in the USA’s lopsided 117-65 win over Canada.

Nine months later, White was selected for the 1995 USA Basketball Junior National Select Team that competed in the first Nike Hoop Summit. White led a balanced USA scoring attack as the UUnited States claimed the 86-77 victory in the inaugural Hoop Summit. Playing 21 minutes off the bench, White made 5-of-7 shots, including his only 3-point try, and added two rebounds, four assists and one steal. The U.S. effort was also aided by Jelani McCoy’s 11 points and five rebound effort, while Garnett produced a near triple-double. posting 10 points, 10 rebounds and nine blocked shots. Marbury was the fourth U.S. player in double-figure scoring, recording 10 points and adding five assists and two steals.

Taking his considerable basketball talents to Ann Arbor and to the Michigan Wolverines, White in 1995-96 made his presence there felt immediately. Starting in 14 of 32 games as a freshman for a U of M team that also included Maurice Taylor, Louis Bullock, Maceo Baston, Robert Traylor and Jerod Ward, White posted solid rookie numbers, averaging 9.0 ppg. (fourth high on team), 4.7 rpg. (3rd high on team), and 1.2 apg. Playing for head coach Steve Fisher, the Maze and Blue finished 20-12 after losing 80-76 to Texa in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

White’s solid play as a rookie was recognized and he was selected as the recipient of the University of Michigan’s RRudy Tomjanovich Most Improved Player award at the season’s end.

But White’s promising collegiate career never finished at the University of Michigan. Instead he transferred to the University of Missouri and after sitting out one season, White returned to the court for the 1997-98 season.

Averaging 10.9 ppg. and 4.9 rpg., Mizzou finished the year 17-15 overall. The following year (1998-99), White’...
