Royce White update
Royce White was absent for Monday's game against the Miami Heat and also missed Tuesday's practice. It's not a secret that White suffers from anxiety issues which include the fear of flying and the Rockets were seemingly working with white to overcome those issues. Below is the statement that Royce White released this evening concerning his situation.
"In hindsight, perhaps it was not a good idea to be open ... honest about my anxiety disorder due to the current situations at hand that involve the nature of actions from the Houston Rockets. The Rockets have been inconsistent with their agreement to proactively create a healthy and successful relationship. Failure to meet my requests for support will end with me being unhealthy and that is not a consequence that I am willing to accept to play any sport."
