Randy White (born November 4, 1967 in Shreveport, Louisiana) is an American former professional basketball player.

A 6'8", 240 pound power forward, White was a star at Louisiana Tech University, where he averaged 21.2 points and 10.5 rebounds as a senior and earned the nickname "Mailman II" (a reference to NBA legend and Louisiana Tech alumnus Karl "The Mailman" Malone) [1]. He was then selected by the Dallas Mavericks with the eighth pick of the 1989 NBA Draft and played five seasons with them, averaging a career-high 9.7 points per game in 1992-93. He later played in the CBA and in the international leagues, including a stop with European powerhouse Maccabi Tel Aviv and in Italy with Pfizer Reggio Calabria (in 1994-1995).
