D’Angelo Russell was the second pick of the 2015 NBA draft. He was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers and had it been any other team, he may not have ended up on this list. During his rookie year, he became close with veteran swingman, Nick “Swaggy P” Young who is quite the character himself.

To make a long and ridiculous story short, Russell ended up recording Swaggy P secretly when he was talking about cheating on his then fiance, Iggy Azalea. He then posted it on Snapchat and the whole world found out. The NBA community disowned him because “snitches get stitches”. It’s probably why is now wearing a Brooklyn Nets Jersey.
