White coached the Indiana Fever in 2015-16 and had a 37-31 regular season record. The Fever reached the WNBA Finals in 2015 where they lost to the Minnesota Lynx in a best-of-five series, 3-2.

The Sun’s search for a new head coach began late last month when Curt Miller left the team to take the same job with the Los Angeles Sparks. He was among the most successful coaches in franchise history with a 140-86 regular season record from 2016-22, six straight playoff appearances and trips to the WNBA Finals in 2019 and 2022.

Miller was a two-time WNBA Coach of the Year winner (2017, 2021) and was named the 2017 Executive of the Year after taking on the role of general manager in 2017.

She was drafted in the second round (21st overall) of the 1999 WNBA Draft by the Charlotte Sting and played one season there before being acquired by Indiana the following year in the Sting dispersal draft. She played four seasons with the Fever.

White retired in 2004 and was an assistant coach at Ball State, Kansas State and Toledo. She was hired as an assistant coach by the Chicago Sky in 2007 and spent four seasons there before moving on to the Fever in 2011 under Lin Dunn.
