Behind every successful man is a woman who can spell correctly.
Nick Young‘s season went up in flames after the D’Angelo Russell debacle led to the most awkward locker room drama in recent memory, and he was subsequently benched by head coach Byron Scott, who was recently relieved of his duties. NBA insiders around the league have been hinting for months that Los Angeles will try to move Young during the offseason–rumors only made stronger by his recent clash with Russell–making 2016 a year to forget, and it’s only April.
Iggy Azalea saved Young from taking yet another L this year, as her fiancée prepared to have the word “BORN REBLE” tattooed in pretty huge letters on his upper back. As Azalea tells it, Young’s tattoo was already underway when she arrived on the scene and noticed that “REBEL” was spelled differently than she remembered it.
Guys, I wanna let you know. Nick cant spell and if it wasnt for the LOVE i have for him. He would have “BORN REBLE” tatted across his back

Young’s Twitter handle currently has his nickname, “Swaggy P,” spelled as “Swagy P,” but something tells us that’s easier to fix than a tattoo.
