    She was apparently Miss India 2011, and this is her supporting a campaign to stop abuse against women. She says (in Febuary of this year) she was previously a victim of abuse and that she is standing up for all those women who have been victimized and cannot speak up...yet she covers for a guy to protect his reputation just a couple months later? wtf, she is definitely not credible to me...i will wait for the facts to come out...

    He's still due guaranteed money this season. If he was convicted of a battery charge, his team could try to invalidate his contract and not pay him, effectively reducing his life-time earnings by half. Probably they would have had a hard time doing that anyway, but she was probably worried about endangering the money-train at the time. Since then, the relationship has probably soured to the point she knows that money won't be coming anyway, or not in sufficient volume to put up with his bs. She can probably snag another, wealthier, and less difficult player anyway.

    Royce White really seems like a useless human being.

    I guess this chick didn't fill up the tires on the bus to the right psi.

    I feel like we've read this story before. We are just missing chapters 3 & 4 which tell the story of his next bout with drug abuse, bankruptcy, and then getting arrested at some point.

    The only difference is we found out about the mental health aspect of the story first. Sort of like how Breaking Bad & Pulp Fiction messed with their story timelines to show future plot points out of order.

    I guess Royce White is truly an innovator.

    WTF is that even supposed to mean? Regardless, it sounds like she wanted to cover for him at the time because they were still involved, but now that they're no longer together, she's had a change of heart. Definitely not the best way to handle the situation, but Royce is a douche nonetheless.

    On a side note, I'd really like to draw attention to the blatant racism of dragician's post (and really, just the completely unfunny aspect of it).

    If Obama had a son, he wouldn't look like Royce.

    So, is this the third story this summer in which, allegedly, an NBA player got accused by his girlfriend of some form of infidelity and used physical force against her?

    Lawson, White, and Sullinger. Anyone else? I don't recall any word on how the Liggins incident started. Not that the kind of stuff doesn't happen, but 3 in one summer out of like 450-500 NBA players seem unusually frequent.

    Also, this is no excuse for physical violence but I am not sure how White's GF could be surprised that he would be making advances on her female friends. His history on these things is quite notorious, no?

    He should be under investigation for claiming to be a NBA player.

    I think we should give Royce a fair chance.

    I'm glad this is NBA Dish material and not in the GARM.

    What's with the amount of abuse these days. One after another, you be hearing about players beating on women. At least T-Jones had the guts to stomp on a dude.
