Can Nick Young’s Relationship with the Lakers Be Saved?

When Nick Young joined the Lakers before the start of the 2013-14 season, it was a homecoming for him. He grew up in Los Angeles, went to Cleveland High School in the San Fernando Valley, and attended the University of Southern California, where he starred for three seasons. He decided to skip his senior year to enter the NBA draft.  He was chosen 16^th in the first round by the Washington Wizards. By the time he joined the Lakers many years later, he was already a veteran at 28, but except for a short stint with the Clippers, he had played his entire career for teams outside California.
