Los Angeles Lakers guard Nick Young was ejected on Friday night, after elbowing Steven Adams of the Oklahoma City Thunder in the throat. 

What happens when you get under Nick Young’s skin? You get a “Swaggy P” elbow to the throat. Just ask Steven Adams of the Oklahoma City Thunder.

After Steven Adams tried to set a screen, things with Young got a bit physical. The end result was an elbow from Swaggy P to Adams’ throat and then a flagrant foul for Young that got him ejected from the game.

It was a less than ideal reaction for the Lakers, but Young owned up to his mistake.

“I lost my mind a little bit, checked into the crazy house,” Young said, via NBC Sports.

The Lakers will hope that one of their best players can keep his cool a little better as the season goes on, but for they will have to deal with the consequences and Young will as well — which will likely be a fine from the NBA league office.

The Swaggy P-less Lakers lost to the Thunder by one point, 104-103.
