Stephanie White

Stephanie White-McCarty (born June 20, 1977) was a former professional basketball player in the Women's National Basketball Association. As an intercollegiate athlete, she was named the winner of the Wade Trophy in 1999, which recognizes the top female basketball player in the nation.

White was the 1995 Indiana Miss Basketball and was also named 1995 Gatorade National Player of the Year and the USA Today National Player of the Year. She led Purdue University to the 1999 NCAA Women's National Championship in basketball. She played five years in the WNBA, two with the Charlotte Sting and four with the Indiana Fever. She retired in 2004.

Stephanie White joined the Chicago Sky as an assistant coach in 2007. White comes to the Sky with five years of professional playing experience in the WNBA, and more than four years of coaching experience. White began her five-year WNBA career with the Charlotte Sting in 1999. She was acquired a year later in an expansion draft by the Indiana Fever to lead the team’s inaugural season roster. After four years with the Fever, she ranked third in games played (112) and three point field goals (92), and fourth in scoring (684). She averaged 5.9 points and 2.0 assists per game.

White attended Purdue University, where she was named National College Player of the Year, Indiana NCAA Woman of the Year, and Big Ten Conference Player of the Year on the way to leading Purdue to their only NCAA National Championship in 1999.

She retired from the WNBA in 2004, and went on to become the assistant coach at Ball State (2003-04), Kansas State (2004-05), and the University of Toledo, where she has coached the past two seasons. White was involved in all aspects of the basketball program, including recruiting, on-floor coaching, scouting, individual workouts and academic support. White is extremely excited to contribute to the Chicago Sky as an assistant coach. She has played alongside several current Sky players during her WNBA career, and is thrilled to work with the team this season.
