QUOTES BY Nick Young


I'm just a cool guy. It's just in my DNA.

As a player, you model yourself after other players. Kobe takes the same approach as Michael Jordan. But I follow someone like Magic Johnson; he showed emotion, he smiled and jumped around, he was happy for his teammates. There needs to be more players like that.

Nobody in the world can guard me one-on-one.

Some people only recognize me for that - ain't you the meme guy?

Aw man, growing up I just loved sneakers. In my neighborhood, having the freshest shoes was always a key. A major key.

I know everybody in the NBA watches each other's styles. They might not admit it, but they do.

I went from almost not playing in the NBA to playing on a championship team.

I'm just a handsome guy. Kinda like a ladies' man, like 'Ladies Man,' the movies.

I'm just all around cool guy that played basketball.
