THE Mahindra Enforcers are hoping that new blood of reinforcement can finally elevate the team to new heights.
Still without an appearance in the playoffs following their first five conferences in the Philippine Basketball Association, the Enforcers will now bank on Georgia Tech standout James White to provide some much-needed lift in their next campaign in the upcoming Governors’ Cup.
In the four instances thus far in its young PBA stint as a franchise, Mahindra had tapped solid imports and it is hoping that White can be the same, or even better.
In import-laden conferences these past two seasons, Mahindra surprised a lot and actually competed for a spot in the post-season, only to come up short on all occasions, leaving it as the only team in the league without a playoffs’ appearance.
The 6’8” White averaged 9.6 points and five rebounds in his stint with Georgia Tech.
