The Nick Young-D’Angelo Russell feud has taken another turn, and this time it has nothing to do with the two basketball players.
While there’s no doubt Russell was the one who videotaped his Los Angeles Lakers teammate talking about his exploits with women other than fiancée Iggy Azalea, it remained a mystery as to how the video allegedly made its way from Snapchat to the Internet.
It appears that question was answered Wednesday when someone from the website Fameolous.com, which broke the Young-Russell video news, told the backstory on ESPN 97.5 in Houston.
“Somebody from Nicki Minaj’s camp, a source, got the video and they sent it in,” the anonymous writer said. “And they said, ‘Here put this out because Iggy want to talk mess about Nicki Minaj, put this out and let her know what her fiancé is doing.’ … It had nothing to do with the basketball players.”
The incident the source from Minaj’s camp was referring to was a recent appearance by Azalea on Bravo, which you can hear for yourself in the video below.
