"The most exciting and intriguing basketball

book you will ever read."


Basketball is one of the most popular and appealing sports in the United States. The emerging influence of television, high school, college and professional basketball has made this sport an intricate part of the American way of life.

White Ebony is the story of two youths from Mississippi who came from humble beginnings and attained the ultimate heights in basketball and the financial world.

The first day of Elementary school a bond of friendship developed between the two poor youngsters, one white and one black, which remain intact throughout their lives. Billie Williams, a seven foot nine inch white boy and Jason Whiteman, six feet eight inches black athlete would dominate the basketball scene beginning in junior high school, through high school, college and finally on the professional level.

The payoffs began in junior high school when the coaches bought them lunch. In high school they received preferential treatment, and in college they were making more money than the combined salaries of the coaches and faculty. Professional basketball provided them with riches beyond their wildest dreams.

Love affairs, blackmail, racism, murder, Wall Street, payoffs, Swiss bank accounts and the Mob make the story of the basketball duo, better know as the Mississippi Gambler's, a soul searching and exciting adventure.
