We can all agree that it hasn't been the best introduction to the NBA for Royce White, but I loved watching the kid at Iowa State and I am still hoping he is able to flash some of the brilliance on an NBA court.
Saw this pop up on eBay and snagged it for under $20. No matter who the rookie is, $20 for a true 1/1 is a bargain in my book.

Also: ESPN just ranked him as the worst player (http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/9680298/2013-nba-player-rankings-401-500) in the NBA.

He has potential if he can get his head right. Hell of a snag.

His career is over. Not a waste of money but not much value either.

That is a hell of a pick up. Look at it this way, the worst youre out of is a $20 bill lol.

Nice looking card. I've always liked Elite. It's awesome to get a 1/1 for that cheap.

Well he's pretty much done here and there's very little chance he goes overseas and gets a fanbase there (unless he takes a boat, y'know?).
Unless there is some sentimental value, $20 does seem a tad high, but you never know what could happen with such a young player.

How can his career be over when it is not started? I bet when he comes back, Panini will make another RC auto of his.

How is his career over? He wont fly and has a HUGE Stigma over his head. No teams needs a bad teammate and a head case. Has any team shown ANY interest in this guy????

He was traded to the Sixers and signed to a deal.

I'm just making fun of your statement about "his career is over" :)
I know he is pretty much done at NBA level.
Geez, I'd take that for 20 bucks all day long... great snag!! I have one of those blacks myself (from another terrible rookie, I forget who), and they look great in person!

So it's not okay to laugh at the Jennings game fight but its okay to trash a guy over his disability.
Yeah tht makes sense....

Assault is a crime. Saying someone's career is over because he won't fly when the job description entails flying is quite a different subject. What do you not understand???
Also how did I trash the guy? Wake up dude.

All Royce White need is just a Hyperloop.

Is this the dude that cant fly? Dr Phil?

I'd take the chance as well, wasn't he a 16th overall pick?
ESPN ranked him #500, I thought that was funny.

He says he can fly to games if necessary, but would prefer not to when the option is there.
He will play this year with the Sixers. I would not be surprised if he goes HAM.

Looking at Sixer schedule, I think he can play 90% of the game with just train travel on the first month.

He averaged 11.4 points and 5.7 rebounds in 8 games during his NBDL stint. I doubt he will get much run, however the Sixers are pretty bad so he might get more minutes with them than he would ever have got on Houston.

nvm

Thanks! I know I spent more than $20 on some of his other cards, so this seemed like a great price.

ESPN insider had an article today basically saying his career is over. They said he will not have his 1.8 Million option picked up and he will be a free agent with no other teams interested in him.

He'll probably spend most of the season playing for the 76ers new NBDL affiliate in Delaware.
