Nick Young had a rough night that ended with the NBA free agent behind bars.
Swaggy P was arrested in Hollywood just before midnight on a misdemeanor charge with bail set at $10,000.
LAPD tells The Blast Young was stopped for a traffic violation shortly before midnight. He failed to cooperate, interfered with the officer's investigation and was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of obstruction of justice. His vehicle was also impounded upon his arrest, and he bailed out of jail around 3 AM.
Just before his arrest, Young appeared to be at a basketball event for EA Sports with rapper Lil Dicky.
Later in the night, Young filmed himself singing Wiz Khalifa's song, Hopeless Romantic. He also tweeted out a message before the arrest that may give some insight to the mood he was in: "Try smiling when times are hard ... it’s works !!!"
Young signed a one year deal with the Golden State Warriors last year and won his first NBA Championship.
