Nick Young didn't know when the trade deadline was
Bless your heart, Swaggy P.
Nick Young was apparently one of the only NBA players who was not tense ahead of Thursday's trade deadline because calendars are not his jam.
Swaggy skipped merrily into the Los Angeles Lakers' facility, happy to still be with the team, because he thought the trade deadline was Wednesday.
Turns out Nick Young thought yesterday was trade deadline when he entered Lakers' facility + expressed joy to still be with them. Oh, Swaggy

Nick Young said he thought the trade deadline was yesterday. so when he showed up at practice yesterday, he said, "I'm still a Laker!"

Coach Byron Scott said what we were all thinking when hearing of Young's error:
Nick Young thought the trade deadline was yesterday. Byron Scott: "I don't think Nick pays a whole lot of attention to current events."
