Kanye West very well may have created a monster when he name-dropped Nick Young on his latest song, “Facts.” Swaggy P’s teammate Julius Randle sent this out on Twitter just a few minutes after the anti-Nike anthem was released:

So is it just a coincidence that the Lakers are undefeated since Kanye shouted Swaggy out (for the record, they've played the 76ers and the Suns in their last two games)—or is there something more to it? One thing’s for sure: The Lakers host the Warriors tomorrow night, so we're going to find out the answer to that pretty quickly.
