    I initially thought you meant an English team. Thought to myself he better get ready for a long-ass boat ride, because no way is that man about to fly across the ocean.

    He is talented, but what a knuckle head.

    People forget that he comes off as a genius and genuinely great person. Which is why he is such an enigma.

    People are infatuated with talented scrubs. It won't change.

    Well, I thought good for Royce because you can probably get away with not flying if you're playing within the UK.

    I wonder if he still has that special RV provided by Morey. Must be a sweet ride.

    This is so depressing, from sold out NBA arenas to first come first serve at Canadian high school gymnasiums. I really wish he could've found a less difficult way to create awareness for mental health #BeWell

    I am just hoping for him that he does not go for altercations and ejections.

    Yep. I thought Royce had decided to play minor league soccer. (He could be a good goalie.) But then how was he going to England with a bus?

    LOL Royce White must be kicking himself on how stupid he was. I guess he thought 3M was good enough to live his entire life without having to work again, he probably thought he was gonna make it big as a rapper/producer so he just needed a little cash to get started and so after getting some guaranteed money he raised a hissy fit so he didn't have to play anymore.

    Now I bet he's burned through all his money after all these years of sitting on his ass so he has no choice but to play for chump change. Serves him right, lots of people become busts in the NBA but he was one of the few who did it in bad faith. Now he wasted the key years of his life and I doubt he steps foot in an NBA floor again. While Royce did have an NBA level skill, unfortunately playmaking was the only thing he can do and he sucked at everything else from defense, shooting and rebounding and now that he spent so much time not working on his game I highly doubt he will ever set foot on an NBA floor again unless it's in a tryout whereupon he gets cut.

    A lot of manipulative people are extremely intelligent and can be kind. Also, a lot of struggling, self-doubting people are extremely intelligent, and can be kind.
