Former Houston Rockets player Royce White sits down with DJ Vlad for his first VladTV interview, opening with a candid look back at their 2022 online feud sparked by Vlad’s viral tweet about video games and depression. White says he doesn’t remember the exchange in detail, downplays the “beef,” and praises VladTV’s cultural impact and long-form interviews.
The conversation then shifts to White’s journey from Saint Paul and Minneapolis in the Twin Cities to becoming one of Minnesota’s top high school basketball stars. He reflects on being named Minnesota Mr. Basketball, winning two state championships, playing for DeLaSalle and Hopkins, and coming through the Howard Pulley Nike Elite program. White also discusses being a Jordan All-American, missing the McDonald’s All-American Game, Midwest recruiting politics, and how that fueled his college basketball ambitions. The interview also touches on his Senate runs, presidential aspirations, and public persona.
