D.J. White has risen

by Ryan Corazza in Former Hoosiers | March 18th, 2009

After undergoing jaw surgery in October, D.J. White hasn’t seen one second of playing time. (Well, he didn’t appear in a game with the Thunder before that either.)

But fear not, Hoosier fans, as D.J. was cleared by doctors Monday to resume full-contact drills. White will be a member of the D-League’s Tulsa 66ers. According to Ridiculous Upside, White is joining a bit of a talented roster in Tulsa, so hopefully he finds his way into a starter’s role in an effort to make it onto the Thunder’s roster as early as next season.

Best of luck, D.J.

    April 01, 2009 vs Austin Toros in Austin - I'm so there. I'll try to let you know how he looks.
  • I was watching a Clippers - Thunder game with DJ on the bench, his face was crazy swollen, it looked like hollywood special effects. I am glad he seems to finally be healing from it.

    I'm an IU alumn and I intern with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants. We play the Tulsa 66ers April 5th at 6pm. This is high quality basketball to go along with great in-game entertainment; in addition to affordable ticket prices...You get all this on top of getting the chance to see one of the greatest IU basketball all time...D.J.

    IU could put together a pretty solid D league roster.

    Tulsa was led by Gary Forbes. Since I just talked about Forbes the other day (somewhere in here), we're going to focus on DJ White. White is a stud. After just being cleared to practice two days before, he played 32 minutes off the bench to contribute the only double-double for his team. He had 15 points (6-14 from the field), 10 boards, and a block. He did pick up five fouls and turn the ball over five times, but one was a sloppy pass to him that he lost out of bounds, one was an offensive foul, and three were passes he tried to make, but couldn't. I could tell he was rusty, but played with a great motor. Overall, I was impressed.
  • Did anyone watch the Clipper's highlight on ESPN this morning? Somebody threw a half court alley-oop pass to Eric Gordon, looked SWEET. Btw, clips finally won
