lead the team in points, rebounds, and assists in the same season. The comparison was based on his versatility and ability to function as an initiator of offense and facilitator from the forward position while also being able to stretch the defense with his outside shooting. White wasn't drafted by the NBA because he was a 6'4 power forward.

Probably the closest physical comparison is Travon Bryant, who never reached his potential at MU, and the closest in terms of overall game is Greg Cavener, who couldn't shot from the outside at all. So a combination of those two players if one existed would be the right answer.
