Woj is also saying that Hoiberg may be an NBA coach next season. If so maybe we can unload White to whatever team hired them. I doubt it of course, but maybe if we throw a Winnebago into the trade...
Yeah, if Hoiberg takes a NBA job then I'm sure he'll be able to pick up Royce on a minimum because no other team is going to take a shot at him.

He can lie all he wants, he didn't want to go on the road trip so he could stay home and watch Iowa State in the NCAA tournament, they get eliminated, the road trip is over so he heads back to work.
Well credit where credit is due. He handled the miscommunication nicely. Still shouldn't tweet so much though.
how easy it is to charge to miscommunication . . . he unitarily go back to houston with the bs reasons he sputters . . . miscomm.. now that's progress my arse.
That's one hell of an interesting miscommunication. "Royce, you run for a reason! It's to stay in shape!" "Oh, I'm done for the season?! Great! See you! And sure, I'll have cake!"
Credit for what? Going AWOL for 2 games and tweeting about his return? Lol the bar for Royce is so low
too bad the RGV coaches probably wish he was going to stay home. I feel bad for them having to deal with this guy until the rockets can decline his option.
Miscommunication?? On what? Doctor said he was fine and should stay in RGV but he misinterpreted that as "Best for your health to fly back to Houston and do an interview??" I'd like nothing better for him to just get a DNP from now to the end of the season.
Royce White hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt. Until i hear otherwise, I'll assume that he just left the team because he didn't want to go on the final road trip of the year so that he could watch Iowa State in the NCAA tournament.
I think this paraphrased theory posted by Angor Wat last week has a high chance of being accurate (sorry can't find exact quote): "Of course the team doctor would say staying home in his nice home in Houston is better for his anxiety than on a traveling d league team where he stays in a hotel. Did he twist the doctors words though? Did Royce say, "hey doc, my anxiety is acting up. You think it would be reduced if I just stayed home in Houston?" Well, logically of course it would, Royce. That would be the safest place to b.... *Looks up, Royce is nowhere to be found* Umm Royce, where did you go? *sounds of Royce's tires screeching as he jets out of town*"
