Los Angeles Lakers guards D’Angelo Russell and Nick Young addressed the media on Wednesday evening, a day after ESPN reported teammates were isolating their No. 2 NBA Draft pick after a leaked video surfaced. In the video, which Russell recorded but vows he did not leak, the 20-year-old rookie is asking Young, engaged to Iggy Azalea, about his infidelities.
Transcripts of both Young’s statement and Russell’s session with the media can also be read below.
Nick Young’s statement:
I don’t want to get into my personal life right now. I think it’s best me and D’Angelo handle the situation we have in a private matter, outside of the media.
