NBA's Young Denies Rape Allegations

Former Los Angeles Clipper Nick Young denied allegations that he drugged and raped a woman after an encounter at a West Hollywood bar, the LA Weekly reported Friday.

Young, who hasn't been charged criminally, posted the following on Instagram last week:

Don't believe everything you hear. Real Eyes. Realize. Real Lies.

I was shocked with the amount of people who actually believed that Swaggy would do such a thing! I take my craft and my reputation seriously. I have a son that looks up to me as well as fans that are children. I would never want them to think of me in such a way.
Young, currently a member of the Philadelphia 76ers, called those who believe the allegations "haters" and apparently has taken down the comments from his Instagram account.
