Summary
On pure talent, there aren't many with more overall ability than Royce White. There's nothing on the court White can't do: ball handling, passing, posting up, shooting, rebounding, and at 6-8, 261 that's a special combination. On the court, there aren't many holes in his game, it's off the court where the concerns come in. White's issues are well documented and it's not something I can speculate on, but if he can overcome his issues, White has the potential to be an integral part of very good team.
