Nick Young will have MRI on left knee on Thursday
The Los Angeles Lakers may have a little less swag in the coming days.
Nick "Swaggy P" Young twisted his left knee during Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers and was not able to return. He is scheduled to undergo an MRI on the knee on Thursday when the team arrives in Philadelphia.
Context clues reportedly point to Young missing at least one game, meaning he's unlikely to go Friday against the 76ers.
Any Young absence leaves a scoring deficit on the bench. In 47 games this year, Young is averaging 17.1 points, second only to Jamal Crawford among reserves.
