Royce. It sucks you're leaving, but you made the best decision for you and your son, and I can respect that. You are one of my favorite college basketball players of all time. Good luck in the NBA. Keep the same attitude in the NBA and you'll have a great career.
for some reason i been thinking he gone be at the top of the rookies him and terrance jones i just have a gut feeling they gone feed off eachothers succeess and lets not for get the future scoring champ lamb i think this gone be a team to watch better then alot of others think
The Rockets got a steal with this guy. He has power, skill, & can run. Can play any position because good basketball IQ & good character. Future all star.
Back in high school I couldn't stand the guy because of his attitude (and also possibly because his team was #1 in our state and mine was #2). Then after high school he got in trouble for all that stuff and I hated him that much more. But after watching him play last season and seeing his rockets interview I gotta say I respect the guy. Looks like he's grown up quite a bit. Lot of people were afraid to pick him, but it's easy to see the dude is just flat out dominant. Good luck Royce
Really nice mix you have here man, props for creating it. Loved the angle of the camera you used and the in game commentary. Royce is gonna have a productive and lengthy NBA career for sure.
This guy is great at grabbing boards! And his court vision is phenomonal for a big guy he's like a heavier lamar odom he can grab the boards and after he does he can spread the floor.
I'm going to miss that guy :( I'm going to miss that whole 2011-2012 team :( There will never be another collegiate player like Royce White Heck there won't ever be another player like Scotty or allen either, but not only did they change ISU Basketball...ISU Basketball changed them as well :)
Oh yeah. That's what I meant. I'm an ISU fan, and I am really thankful. Probably best for him he wasn't around all the hype and media scrutiny during his year off. Ames is a great place for hotheads to cool down...I mean, he became the perfect face of the program from someone that was committing crimes in Minnesota. He'll be great to the team that drafts him.
if royce white gets drafted by the celtics his career will be great. KG will be a great mentor to this kid, nd the celtics could sure use someone like this.
I was tempted to say the same thing. He can be just as overwhelming just in how he dominates physically. But Charles Barkley is a good comparison, too.
hope the rockets won't give up on his fear of flying issue. this guy is special and it would be a hell of a story if he turns out to be the best of the rookies this year
I wonder how the fear of flying will affect Royce and his NBA career. Although he has a terrible FT% (under 50%) he can work on that and bring it above 65%. Doc Rivers doesn't usually give rookies a lot of opportunities as they should be getting
He doesn't have a fear of flying. He just doesn't like it. I work in the travel industry and have seen true "fear" of flying. The person is sweating and freaking out - 12 hours before the flight. Royce just gets nervous thinking about flying but then gets on the plane if needed and flies to the game. No freaking out on the plane. No sedatives. Nothing. He just gets nervous thinking about flying - like lots of people do. He flies all the time, though.
This guy is going to be an awesome, dominant pro. He most reminds me of Charles Barkley, but check out his passing game and the size of his hands. Point guard skills at 6'8."
The Cs would probably do with Green and White what they do with Rondo and Bradley. Seriously though, both are combo forwards and next year, summer of '13, is a big year for free agent 4s (Jefferson, Millsap, J Smith....) If the Celtics pick White then they will probably see how they both work out and then use one as trade bait to pick up one of those 4s, or keep them both on the bench as combo forwards and move one into the Pierce spot in 2014.
i actually saw him going left on his post move and then spinning right. also a left hand scoop lay-up. if u feel comfortable with going left and spinning right then im quite sure u can attack the left side efficiently
Great athlete with great body control. My only concern is that I don't see much video of him going to his left, and in the NBA, they're gonna make him go left.
its gonna be hard for him as a nba player, he has top ten talent but his shit off court and the fact he has anxiety on planes and nba players practically live on planes
He flew to Italy for exhibition games, he flew throughout Big XII conference play, and he flew to countless pre-draft workouts.....I really don't get why the "flying issue" is even an issue.
This nigga is like a Point Forward already got a mans body only problem is he doesnt like flying that sucks but hopefully he gets over that shit because he gonna BE NICE!!!
How will they draft him if he has the flying anxiety though? I appreciate him being very open about it, but how will he cope with the NBA travel schedule? For example he say he was drafted by the Raptors, he could be flying to Toronto from New Orleans one night, then from Toronto to LA the next...I hope he makes it work somehow, but I think that may turn some scouts and GM's away from him...
Can you love a person you've never met? Royce White is proof that you can. What an amazing young man! Best of luck to you, classy man.
The man who brought the magic back. Make Cyclone Nation proud at the next level
What a tank!! Wished he would've stayed another year so I could've watched him at least one year...
Royce is amazing.
ima miss him hope he does good in houston im now a rocket fan (plus my uncle lives in houston) ROYCE WHITE 4 ROOKIE OF DA YEAR
Royce. It sucks you're leaving, but you made the best decision for you and your son, and I can respect that. You are one of my favorite college basketball players of all time. Good luck in the NBA. Keep the same attitude in the NBA and you'll have a great career.
amazing but simply crazy
for some reason i been thinking he gone be at the top of the rookies him and terrance jones i just have a gut feeling they gone feed off eachothers succeess and lets not for get the future scoring champ lamb i think this gone be a team to watch better then alot of others think
any. hes very versatile and can be a PG from time to time
The Rockets got a steal with this guy. He has power, skill, & can run. Can play any position because good basketball IQ & good character. Future all star.
perfect for houston big and fast!
Back in high school I couldn't stand the guy because of his attitude (and also possibly because his team was #1 in our state and mine was #2). Then after high school he got in trouble for all that stuff and I hated him that much more. But after watching him play last season and seeing his rockets interview I gotta say I respect the guy. Looks like he's grown up quite a bit. Lot of people were afraid to pick him, but it's easy to see the dude is just flat out dominant. Good luck Royce
he would be A GREAT addition to our team...great rebounder which is exactly what the celtics need
I'm Rooting for him
Great finisher..he's also a great rebounder and passer if you seen some summer league highlights. he's
Beast.
Really nice mix you have here man, props for creating it. Loved the angle of the camera you used and the in game commentary. Royce is gonna have a productive and lengthy NBA career for sure.
I wanna see him in Boston!
This guy is great at grabbing boards! And his court vision is phenomonal for a big guy he's like a heavier lamar odom he can grab the boards and after he does he can spread the floor.
I'm going to miss that guy :(
I'm going to miss that whole 2011-2012 team :(
There will never be another collegiate player like Royce White
Heck there won't ever be another player like Scotty or allen either,
but not only did they change ISU Basketball...ISU Basketball changed them as well :)
Oh yeah. That's what I meant. I'm an ISU fan, and I am really thankful. Probably best for him he wasn't around all the hype and media scrutiny during his year off. Ames is a great place for hotheads to cool down...I mean, he became the perfect face of the program from someone that was committing crimes in Minnesota. He'll be great to the team that drafts him.
if royce white gets drafted by the celtics his career will be great. KG will be a great mentor to this kid, nd the celtics could sure use someone like this.
welcome to the nba's winningest franchise.
Him, Rondo, Bradley & Green. The Celtics' Future!
I was tempted to say the same thing. He can be just as overwhelming just in how he dominates physically. But Charles Barkley is a good comparison, too.
Houston picked up all favorite picks. Lamb and Royce.
he's good talent and you can build around him which is hard to find when you don't have a lottery pick
The next great Celtic, I see big plans for him in Boston #CelticsNation
the next lbj
he was still a beast at ISU
Damn... I wish we could've seen more of this guy. He is such a talented player with a great skill set!
damn, you're right! He really does favor using that right hand to score...........
hope the rockets won't give up on his fear of flying issue. this guy is special and it would be a hell of a story if he turns out to be the best of the rookies this year
If possible you should include some of his great assists. I think his court vision for a big is the most impressive part of his game.
poor man's leborn james!!!! best of luck in the nba
If he can get a mid range jumper goin dude is be a stud in the NBA for a long time cuz the inside game is already going for him.
Hawks are trading up! BOO YEAH
Welcome to Htown my friend!!!
wish you woulda stayed with our great incoming class. COME TO THE BULLS!!!
the futures lookin bright for the celtics if thats what it looks like
Next member of the Boston Celtics. He's been linked to them in some nba mock drafts for espn insider.
:P hoping his going to be like magic
ROLLS ROYCE BABY!!! CYCLONE NATION!!!
WE LOVE YOU COUSIN
He's gonna be bigger than LeBron, despite the anxiety issues. Good luck!
dude can ball at either forward positions, i'd be surprised if he didnt go in the lottery
I feel for this kid cus ive had problems with Anxiety in the past. Anyone saying hes a waste obviously has no clue what anxiety really is smh.
i see a lot of josh smith in his game. he's gna be good
I wonder how the fear of flying will affect Royce and his NBA career. Although he has a terrible FT% (under 50%) he can work on that and bring it above 65%. Doc Rivers doesn't usually give rookies a lot of opportunities as they should be getting
Boston C should pick him! Great moves Royce!
i hope to see green and white together in boston
I like how the very 1st thing he does after every shot is sprint back to the defensive end
great to see him a celtic
Reminds me of James Johnson with his sneaky athleticism. Although he doesnt jump nearly as high as JJ.
The pacers future power forward
have you seen the hit tape for the iowa state oklahoma football game? its incredible
He doesn't have a fear of flying. He just doesn't like it. I work in the travel industry and have seen true "fear" of flying. The person is sweating and freaking out - 12 hours before the flight. Royce just gets nervous thinking about flying but then gets on the plane if needed and flies to the game. No freaking out on the plane. No sedatives. Nothing.

both

nice video.
I watched this guy at iowa state and loved how he played... although his jump shooting sucked. and he normally "stuffed" it with the right hand
He's gonna need a jumper though. Praying for the guy hope he does well.
You need some of the posterizing he did to that guy from UNI
Wouldn't mind if the Warriors picked him with San Antonio's pick
i actually saw him going left on his post move and then spinning right. also a left hand scoop lay-up. if u feel comfortable with going left and spinning right then im quite sure u can attack the left side efficiently
Great athlete with great body control. My only concern is that I don't see much video of him going to his left, and in the NBA, they're gonna make him go left.
Timberwolves gotta think about picking this guy
He'll get over his fear of flying.
I agree Rondo can make even the worst players look good.
its gonna be hard for him as a nba player, he has top ten talent but his shit off court and the fact he has anxiety on planes and nba players practically live on planes
He flew to Italy for exhibition games, he flew throughout Big XII conference play, and he flew to countless pre-draft workouts.....I really don't get why the "flying issue" is even an issue.
The Next Charles Barkley..... Welcome to Houston Brother
Sounds like a deal is done now for Royce to ride a bus to some games. Good for both sides.
he said flying alone is what he is scared of but as team is ok
Royce was a good choice! Lets go rockets!!!!
This announcer... "with the right hand!"
Well...It's the Iowa State Oklahoma hit tape...highlights from the OSU game.
i would de devistated if he did that
Welcome to the C's
Please don't the arrogant "me, me, me" attitude from the NBA players rub off on you. You should rock it White! Good luck!
This nigga is like a Point Forward already got a mans body only problem is he doesnt like flying that sucks but hopefully he gets over that shit because he gonna BE NICE!!!
Judging from this Tribute Royce doesn't have a left.
From an ISU perspective...thank god.
CELTICS
The next Ron Artest...
hes a sleeper and hes got so much talent
I know you posted that like 4 weeks ago, but the song is called Chances by Five for Fighting i think
Beasley and Randolph are most likely gone and sometimes its best to draft the best player available.
ladies and gentlemen he's a Boris Diaw 2.0
My favorite part was when he stuffed it...with two hands! (and completely threw the announcer off)
Can November please come any sooner? Not just because the NBA season starts but because my birthday is on the 9th (which nobody will care about)
looks like Charles Barkley out there
If only he wasn't afraid of flying he would of been at kentucky
How will they draft him if he has the flying anxiety though? I appreciate him being very open about it, but how will he cope with the NBA travel schedule? For example he say he was drafted by the Raptors, he could be flying to Toronto from New Orleans one night, then from Toronto to LA the next...I hope he makes it work somehow, but I think that may turn some scouts and GM's away from him...
if he could work on going left than the rockets should have a good team going next year
Next LB?
fuckin HOPKINS HIGH SCHOOL 09 baaaby watch this dude from the start
CELTICS NEED U!!!!! Blake jr haha but this kid can dribble
celtics are going to take him at 21 if he's there which he should be its a done deal, unless they try to tradeup for robinson or barnes
