NBA rookies are routinely forced to do all kinds of ridiculous things for their veteran teammates during their first seasons in the NBA. They're forced to bring donuts to morning practices. They're forced to carry bags onto and off of planes and buses. And apparently, they're forced to call their teammates crazy nicknames, too.

During a recent interview with NBA.com, Lakers guard Nick Young revealed that he has a special nickname that he likes to hear from one of his team's rookies. That nickname? Well, we'll let Lakers rookie Jordan Clarkson explain it.

"We call him Scrappy Feet," Clarkson said recently. "Ugly feet. Naw, he told me to call him Daddy Swag…That's a rookie duty so I'll make sure I get it done."

Daddy Swag? Ha. Of course that's what Swaggy P makes Clarkson call him. Of course.

Did you really expect anything less?
