A root ball that takes only the crown roots will have little chance of success, as there are very few feeder roots to re-establish the tree. Your tree appears to be very chlorotic. Is this the tree’s normal color? You do not say when you transplanted this tree. It should have been done during the dormant season. Make sure you have plenty of room in your pot for the tree roots as it waits for its new home. Rooting hormones will probably not be very useful at this time. Make sure you give your tree adequate water, but not too much. Here are a couple of publications on replanting your tree into a new spot:
