Lakers small forward Nick Young was apparently expecting more love from ESPN following arguably the best season of his 7-year NBA career. The former Wizards, Clippers and Sixers player posted a career-high 17.9 points per game during his first season in a Los Angeles uniform, but ESPN still believes there are 149 guys better than him, ranking him as the 150th best player in the league.
Swaggy P is not pleased with that assessment, taking to Twitter and showing off his self-confidence:
Idc there not a 149 ppl better then me in this league #ESPNHigh

While 150 does seem a titch low, keep in mind that Young has only played in all 82 games once (2008-09) and hasn’t appeared in more than 64 games since 2009-10 while averaging 30-plus minutes per game just twice.
