Nick Young Deactivated From The Lakers Nick Young might be having the worst week ever . First, his private personal business hit the internet for the world to see, via a teammate he trusted . Then, his fiancee Iggy Azalea naturally started giving him hell for it. Now, his job is telling him “thanks, but nah” when it comes to him hitting the court, since he’s so distracted by all the other BS going on around him that he can hardly focus on the game. Via ETonline : On Monday, Los Angeles Times sports reporter Mike Bresnahan tweeted that the Los Angeles Lakers had removed Young from their active roster before Sunday’s game against the Boston Celtics. The news comes amid the scandal involving a video secretly recorded by Young’s teammate, rookie D’Angelo Russell, in which Young apparently confesses to being unfaithful to Azalea. ESPN’s Jovan Buha reported that while Lakers head coach Byron Scott said that his decision to bench Young over the Lakers’ last few games has “everything to do with basketball,” he was adamant that it was Young’s mental state, not divisiveness among the team, that caused him to place the 30-year-old shooting guard on the inactive list. “It has nothing to do with the chemistry,” Scott said at practice on Monday. “It has everything to do with just basketball. Right now, I know what he’s going through, and I know it’s hard on him. But he’s not here with us mentally, and there’s no need for me to put him out there on the floor.” SMH! If Nick was mad at D’Angelo before , we KNOW he has to be ready to box him now. Iggy might stick around with a cheating NBA baller …but who has time for a cheat who ALSO doesn’t have a job?
