Nick Young’s NBA career was already in doubt after no team signed him to start the 2018-2019 season, only for the Denver Nuggets to bring him in and release him less than three weeks later.
Now, the former Los Angeles Lakers star has been named a suspect in an alleged robbery that went down last week, where he allegedly struck a guy in the testicles and took his phone.
Via TMZ:
Law enforcement sources tell us … the LAPD received a call on Jan. 4 from a man who claims he was assaulted by Swaggy P when he tried to take his photo at a popular L.A. car wash.
We’re told the alleged victim does not appear to be a paparazzo — just a basketball fan who recognized the former Lakers star and wanted a photo.
The man acknowledged Young didn’t want to be photographed but he snapped a pic anyway — and that’s when Young snapped … confronting the fan, allegedly firing off a nut shot and swiping the phone.
We’re told cops took a report and are investigating. So far, no arrests have been made.
Nick Young has to comment on these allegations.
