    Hope he's planned on living off of this rookie contract for the rest of his life... because I don't see him #EARNING any more money the rest of his life.

    I haven't liked Royce White since his comments about Michael Kidd-Gilchrist before the draft. Those comments even funnier now.

    His actions with Houston makes me dislike him even more.

    White needs an IQ test.

    I wonder if he would be complaining about "mental health protocol" if he was offered a spot in the rotation instead of being assigned to the RGV....

    It's time to cut ties with him. It hurts to waste a pick, but what's done is done, and we're doing fine without him right now. Last thing we need on a young developing team is a potential locker room disturbance.

    So again he wants to everything on his terms. My guess is the Rockets underestimated the kind of care White needs.

    He is making it awfully hard for me to stay supportive of him.

    No one is surprised at this new development really. I was surprised they were assigning him to RGV so soon after he started working out w/ Rockets staff.
