The Instagram photo below was shared on Sunday by Alexis Jones; the people in it were alleged to have pulled up to Jones and her mother at a stoplight and “started yelling and making the most disgustingly vulgar gestures” at them. According to ESPN, Nick Young and Jordan Clarkson were identified by commenters as two of the people in it, a Lakers spokesman said he is aware of the matter, which the team takes “very seriously” and is investigating, but declined further comment.
ESPN notes that that Jones, an activist, is the founder of the non-profit group I AM THAT GIRL, and a book of the same title, both of which “aim to empower women.” Per ESPN, Jones said: “I’m not here to shame them. That’s the last thing I want to do … I don’t want to crucify them. I want to use it as an opportunity to change behavior.”
Nick Young has tweeted in response (since-deleted but preserved by Deadspin), “Aye if you want some attention take a pic of me and say anything next to it and post … The world we live in” and added:
