Gilbert Arenas had some good laughs as he roasted Nick Young recently. It is well known that Nick Young and D’Angelo Russell have a bad blood between them. Back in the 2016 NBA season, Russell secretly videotaped Young, who admitted to cheating on his then-fiancee Iggy Azalea. With things taking a turn for worse, the clip was leaked publicly, making Young go through significant harassment.
Although Russell never admitted to leaking the video, Young was convinced that it was D’Angelo Russell who pulled the strings. Referring to the incident, Gilbert Burns sported a D’Angelo Russell jersey and made jokes about the incident.
“I’m little D-Lo, straight from D-Lo house… All I’m doing is snitching today,” said Arenas in a recent episode of ‘Gil’s Arena.’
Nick Young too, took the statement in good humor as he replied, “It better not be signed neither, I’m not f*cking with you no more, oh that’s what we on today?”

Meanwhile, this was not the only time Nick Young had Gilbert Arenas take a dig at him for his past.

“Don’t do that. You got yours from your girlfriend. Iggy got you [followers]. You ain’t moved to one thousand since. He ain’t signed an autograph since Iggy dropped him,” said Arenas.

Thus, it is evident that despite the banter, both Young and Arenas share a strong bond of friendship. With Gilbert Burns looking seemingly dominant in terms of trolling Young, it remains to be seen whether Nick Young can make a comeback or not.
