    Don't you have to be playing basketball to be considered the most important basketball player alive?

    He remains an entitled con artist and jerk with delusions of grandeur who uses his illness as a prop.

    In my opinion.

    He's lying about not wanting back in the NBA, he just wasn't good enough putting up crap numbers in the dleague and summer league. My guess is he's making about 20K a season with that salary cap of $110K so if an NBA team called him he'd change his tune about not playing for the NBA because they don't support mental health.

    I also remember a poor man's Lebron James. I was really rooting for this knuckle head.

    I ain't clicking that. For anyone who did, does the article talk about the free bang bus he got from Les?

    I remember I was intrigued by his skill set when we drafted him but it didn't take long before I realized that I should have known better. Having once dated someone with a(n undiagnosed) personality disorder (I.e., mental illness), I lived firsthand how it manifests itself. And there is no escape when those dark clouds come rolling in the back of the eyes.

    If Royce White is doing well today, great, but (warning! deep thought that occurred to no one else approaching!) the Rockets should have known better than to draft him.
