    Hehe the Sixers are about to find out his head case is a lot more complicated than fear of flying. It's simply--head case.

    Sixers have until Oct. 31 to pick up his option for the 2014 season. That's an important date for White.

    The Sixers are not picking up that option.

    Sam Hinkie knows what time it is. He took White off of Morey's hands because he has nothing on the 76ers White can mess up. Rockets are paying White's salary, and Sam gets Furkan Aldemir.

    Been saying since last year that Royce White's reaction to not getting his option picked up should be priceless. I thought it would be the Rockets giving him the news but the Sixers will do.

    How much you wanna bet he reverts back to lobbing bombs on Twitter.

    Every piece of news involving Royce White from here on out will be full of lulz.

    Now that it doesn't involve the Rockets we can finally enjoy from afar.

    The Sixers are probably going to just leave him there and leave Spain without him.

    There is ZERO percent change the sixers pick up White's 14/15 option much less allow him to remain on the roster after training camp ends.

    Don't forget the Rockets sent enough cash to cover pretty much all of Royce's salary for THIS YEAR... meaning... Hinkie has been planning on cutting him all along unless for some crazy reason he looks like a changed man in training camp and racks up multiple triple-doubles in preseason.

    Hinkie did the deal for Aldemir, and a 2nd round pick (assuming they don't end up having to give up theirs depending on where the pick lands). Hinkie essentially fleeced the Rockets in this deal. Royce White will almost surely be cut and out of the league on October 31st if not sooner.

    Well I think Rockets have repaid Hinke already with a decent prospect.Rockets gave him James Anderson via waiving him and 76ers got their Dleague coach after he was negogiating with Rockets but at the last second he went to Philly...

    that's what he also told us last year.

    when he finds out he can't play well at the NBA level, I'm sure he'll start making excuses why he can't fly.

    Philly probably only bought him a 1 way ticket. And when White get there, his baby mamas will be there to greet him.

    I guess the embarrassment is his motivation to fly this time...

    Morey's biggest failure is picking this douche.

    maybe this was part of Morey's severance package for Hinkie when leaving the Rockets. "Here's something to get you off to a good start on your new job. And don't forget to pick up the phone when I call you."

    "Wait, what? This is my last year in the league? I'll take the flight! Come on guys! Please?"

    He wants a Spanish baby momma.

    He will end up playing in Europe or China.
