The offseason has begun for the Los Angeles Lakers and their flashy shooting guard, Nick Young, had a message for the fans.
After the Los Angeles Lakers had a disappointing season, one of their — potential — free agents, Nick Young, had a message for the fans.
Keep in mind, Young — aka “Swaggy P” — said it in a way that only he possibly could.
If you couldn’t exactly catch what he was saying…we can’t blame you. Here’s the full quote from Young.
"I want to thank y’all for being there alll season long for me, and for supporting the whole Laker family and my teammates, and just sticking with us. I muchly, muchly, muchly appreciate it and love y’all because y’all stay with Swaggy P. Keep Swaggy P in your hearts and you’ll go places."
Typical Nick Young speaking out to Lakers fans, saying he loves them in his own way. He later went to Twitter to add this as well:
Young has a player option for next season with the Lakers, that he will have to exercise to continue in Los Angeles.
Approaching 32, it seems that Young would like to be a veteran on a playoff team rather than a leader on a rebuilding team.
This past season with the Lakers, Young averaged 13.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game.
He was part of a young Los Angeles team that was supposed to take a step forward under new head coach Luke Walton. Unfortunately, they finished the season 30 games under .500 and vying for a top-3 pick in the NBA Draft.

Nonetheless, Swaggy P still has a lovely message for all the fans in Los Angeles as their season just ended.
