Coby White spoke fondly of Bulls head coach Billy Donovan before the latter's induction to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame on Sept. 6. Specifically, White praised Donovan's ability to build authentic relationships with his players; a skill that dates back to his days leading the University of Florida to a pair of National Championships -- the impetus for his enshrinement.
Donovan helmed the Gators for 19 seasons, racking up 467 victories and winning back-to-back titles in 2006 and 2007 with Chicago fan favorite Joakim Noah.
A collection of Bulls players were in attendance to support their coach: Patrick Williams, Matas Buzelis, Dalen Terry, Ayo Dosunmu and White, who was effusive in his adulation of Donovan.
