Nick Young weighed in on the situation involving Boston Celtics head coach Ime Udoka, who was suspended last week for the entire 2022-23 season after engaging in an âintimateâ relationship with a woman on the teamâs staff.Â
Back in 2016, Iggy Azaleacalled off her engagement with Young after he admitted to cheating on her in a video recorded without his knowledge. He was taped by his Los Angeles Lakers teammate DâAngelo Russell. It was later revealed Young got ex-girlfriend Keonna Green, the mother of his son Nick Jr., pregnant.Â
Young and Green got engaged three years after his split with Azalea.
âIt donât matter about the woman,â Young told VladTV at the 3:00 mark above. âI think men just get bored sometimes, and things happen when you get bored.âÂ
When asked to share some words of advice, Young was optimistic about the future for Udoka and his fiancĂ©e Nia Long. âI think itâs gonna work out. Theyâve been in a relationship for too long. My situation was different, I got recorded,â said 37-year-old Young. âThatâs Nia Long, though.âÂ
Young also revealed he had a somewhat similar situation during his first year with the Washington Wizards. He and a teammate were âmessing around withâ a woman associated with the team, and when it was discovered, she was the one who got fired.Â
âIt happened to me when I was a rookie,â Young said. âMe and Andray Blatche [were] messing around with, I think, one of the cheerleaders, or an assistant, and then they found out. Then we came to the gym, people were blaming us like it was our fault âcause she got fired or something like that.â
