Aaron White was one of the most important signings of AX Armani Exchange Milano last summer but his experience in Italy lasted a few months.
The power forward left Milano in the middle of the season to join Iberostar Tenerife.
White was interviewed by 15min about the upcoming Euroleague game between Zalgiris and Milano, hiss last two teams before joining Spanish ACB.
“I lost my love for basketball in Milan and now the love was reborn in Tenerife” White said. “My role in Milan was not what I was expecting when I signed the contract there. I was not playing and I was not happy with the situation. I did not see the point of sit-in gone the bench, not playing and being annoyed. I decided to leave the team. I needed a team where I could finish the season, re-gain confidence and enjoy basketball again” the power forward added. “Messina wanted me to play hard and with energy. I always play like this but for some reasons he did not give me minutes and did not see me in the rotation” White continued. “He did not know how to use him. Since I joined Milano it was not clear what I needed to do and what he wanted from me. Arturas Gudaitis is in a similar situation. He was fantastic before the injury and he was the best center in EuroLeague behind Brandon Davies. Now he is “blocked”. In my eyes, Milano players don’t know what to do. The game doesn’t look smooth and I was surprised by this situation. “
