The Lakers Locker Room Is A Mess Because D'Angelo Russell Secretly Filmed Swaggy P Admitting He Cheats On Iggy Azaeala In CLASSIC Prank

(Source) Sources told ESPN.com that some teammates’ trust in Russell is eroding after a video surfaced in the past week that shows Russell recording a private conversation between himself and teammate Nick Young. Young does not appear to realize he is being taped.

Said one team insider: “This was a prank gone wrong and a mistake by [Russell], and he has to be held accountable, but I would hope he isn’t overly criticized for it.”

The emergence of the video, sources said, has been the talk of the locker room for the past several days and has led to a tangible strain between Russell and some teammates.

At a recent breakfast meeting, one source said, no Laker would sit with Russell at his table. The source added that, in another instance, Russell came into the locker room and sat next to guard Lou Williams, who got up and walked away.

“It’s bad,” one team source told ESPN.com’s Ramona Shelburne. “It’s about as bad as it can get. There were trust issues already. Now there’s no trust.

HAHA! Classic classic prank. Secretly recording a teammate talking about cheating on his wife and then putting it on the internet. Get it?!?! It’s a prank because he didn’t know he was being recorded and you betrayed his trust and broke an entire locker room apart and probably ended his marriage, get it??? I don’t think you guys get it. It’s a millennial thing. You’re too old to get it.

So I have a question. What the fuck is D’Angelo Russell doing? Normally when you hear of a locker room beef there are two sides to a story. One camp vs another. One group of players vs another group of players. Gilbert Arenas pulls a gun but maybe he also was owed some money? Something along those lines. Gotta hear both sides. But this, I think we can all agree, is the first time a locker room beef  is so clearly one person’s fault and so clearly fucked up that I’m actually shocked they didn’t just kill D’Angelo Russell. This isn’t D’Angelo Russell isn’t passing the ball enough, or that he’s a Coach’s pet, or that he doesn’t put in hours in the weight room. Those are locker room beefs, this is a locker room atomic bomb. I was actually reading this story last night and thinking how do you come back from this and the only thing I could think of was trade basically every single Laker except D’Angelo and start completely fresh? It’s either that or Kobe murders D’Angelo on his way out. That’s all I got. Because I don’t think you come back from something like this, I really don’t. I’ve been in professional locker rooms (TBT for 2 days) and I can tell you this shit would never ever fly. Dahntay Jones was mad at us for eating donuts 30 minutes before tip off, could you imagine if we secretly filmed him to confessing to something? Now the beat 40 point beatdown and sad Magic tweets make a whole lot of sense.

The good news is it’s not like Swaggy P didn’t have a little fun with Kyrie’s cheating. Oh wait.

Have a good summer, Nick!

PS

Third option, and this is just me spitballing here, but maybe Drake LaRoche can hop on the team bus for the final 10 games and clean this whole thing up. Could even make a reality show out of it. Locker Room Rescue. Like Bar Rescue but instead of bars it’s locker rooms and instead of Taffer it’s a 14 year old boy. Should Spike just make me a TV exec now or?
