The tumultuous times of Swaggy P continue. 

Nick Young will miss his fourth straight game Tuesday night when the Los Angeles Lakers visit the Charlotte Hornets, as he continues to deal with a swollen left knee. 

Young has managed to keep himself busy, however, calling out ESPN anchor Robert Flores for a remark about the rapping talent of girlfriend Iggy Azalea, then musing about the situation on Twitter. 

Lakers coach Byron Scott is also skeptical Young will play Wednesday, according to Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News.

With Tuesday's absence, Young will have missed 17 games this season. He's averaging 13.4 points on 36.6 percent shooting - a number Flores made light of Tuesday.
