Injury Update: United's star big sidelined

Melbourne United star Jack White will miss his team's Round 9 clash against Adelaide, the club has confirmed.

White was also withdrawn from the Australian Boomers' squad for next week's FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers, with United expecting him to return on December 1. 

White's strong recent form has seen calls for him to be in the mix for the league's MVP Award, with the 27-year-old averaging 13.7 points and 10.2 rebounds across the NBL25 season so far.

He will be replaced by Development Player, Tom Koppens in the Melbourne squad.
