Terrico White talks about The Basketball Tournament and playing ball in South Korea

Jeff: After declaring for the NBA Draft early and getting picked up by Detroit in the second round, you ran into some injury trouble. What role did those injuries play in your eventual exit from the league?

Terrico: I broke the fifth metatarsal in right foot [as a rookie], which pretty much made me sit out that whole season rehabbing. It took me a full year to get back to 100 percent. We had the lockout the following year and they cut me as soon as the lockout lifted.

I went to training camp with New Orleans and got released because I got hurt again.
