Nick Young and D'Angelo Russell Scandal

During the 2015-2016 NBA season, rookie D'Angelo Russell recorded teammate Nick Young admitting to cheating on fiance Iggy Azalea. This led to locker room issues which further harmed a struggiling team and can be sourced as a reason for such a dismal season. Looking at the 2015–16 Los Angeles Lakers season it can be noted that the team not only lost to the Utah Jazz by a devastating 48 points, but that the team only went on to win two out of the nine games after the incident.
