According to Feigen, the Rockets have arranged for White to see the therapist, but White has not attended. White responded by posting a picture of the email exchange he had with the therapist on Twitter. Here’s a photo:
White deleted the tweet, but it was preserved by user @PHABMK6, among others. White did leave up a number of other tweets that he put out there to contest the claim made in the Houston Chronicle article.
I WILL continue, like I have done the past 72 hours, expressing my concerns to Doc. Fink, about the nature of the prob Between #rockets n I.

Continued: I expressed my concerns to the "appointed" doc, he said inform him if he can help but It's not about anxiety it's about support.
— Royce White (@Highway_30) November 14, 2012
Continued: Putting this off on Dr. Fink is not an acceptable responding course of action for me. I stand by asking for consistency.

The conflict goes back to last week, when White, according to Feigen, expressed concern that he wasn't being given a fair opportunity to earn playing time. White, along with fellow rookies Scott Machado and Donatas Motiejunas, were sent to the Rockets' NBA Developmental League squad on Monday.
