Wikipedia on D White's time in Division II school
White was lightly recruited out of high school, receiving no scholarship offers from any four-year institutions. At the time of his high school graduation, which fell about two months before his 18th birthday, he was barely 6 feet tall—after growing two inches during his senior year.[7] The only head coach at a four-year school who showed sustained interest in White was Jeff Culver, then the head coach at the Denver campus of Johnson & Wales University, a non-scholarship NAIA member better known for its culinary program. By the time White was preparing to make his college decision, Culver was hired as head coach at NCAA Division II UCCS, and offered White a room and board stipend for his freshman season.[8] Culver was only expecting White to become a starter late in his college career. He was aware that White's father had a late growth spurt in college, and also knew that doctors had projected White to potentially reach 6'5".[8] As it turned out, White reached that potential height by the time he enrolled at Colorado–Colorado Springs.[7] With his newfound size and athleticism, White became a star at UCCS, starting every game of his three-year career and left as the school's career leader in points (1,912) and assists (343). In his junior season, he averaged 25.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 5.2 assists for the Mountain Lions, leading the team to the 2015 NCAA tournament.[9] He was named an All-American.
Following this season, White opted to transfer to Division I Colorado to play for Tad Boyle and to test his skills in the Pac-12 Conference, one of the top college leagues in the country.[10] After sitting out the 2015–16 season per NCAA rules, White excelled in his lone season with the Buffaloes, averaging 18.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. He was named first-team All-Pac-12 and a member of the five-man All-Defensive team.[11]
I had no idea D White was one of those late growth spurt guys. So he grew 2 inches as a senior and another what 4-5 inches in the summer (?) in between his senior year and freshman year of college (Apr til Sep so 5 months). 5 inches in 5 months. Wow.
His shooting numbers are much closer to what you expect as well. He shot 34% from 3 as a freshman, 29% as a sophomore, 34% again as a junior before 39.6% for Colorado as senior. He did shoot above 80% from the foul line all 4 years though. 81%, 83%, 84% and 81% again as a senior. 43%, 48%, 53% FG%. Stats from his wikipedia page.
