Nick Young Hits Buzzer Beater to Win Drew League Game, Because Of Course

Swaggy P to the rescue.

Nick Young is known for his irrational confidence on the basketball court, so the fact that he would take this difficult shot to attempt to win a game at the Drew League in Los Angeles on Sunday shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

Young brought the ball up the floor and went behind his back with the dribble to lose a defender, before calmly launching the 25-footer that splashed home as time expired.

Young posted an alternate view of the play to his Instagram page, with a caption that read, "My turn around is crazy @drewleague game was crazy... Game winner... Lil Gilbert," a reference to his former Washington Wizards teammate Gilbert Arenas, whose quirkiness is at a level that even Young can only aspire to reach. Watch it here:
