The Lakers Are Looking Into Sexual Harassment Accusations Against Nick Young And Jordan Clarkson

Jordan Clarkson and Nick Young are being investigated by the Lakers after a woman accused both players of sexually harassing her and her mother on Sunday night, ESPN reports. The woman, Alexis Jones, posted a photo to Instagram, and followers identified two of the men as Clarkson and Young.

Jones is the author and co-founder of I AM THAT GIRL. According to their mission statement, I AM THAT GIRL “transform self-doubt in to self-love by providing a safe space to connect and have honest conversations about things that matter.”

Here’s what she wrote in the caption about the men, two of whom are Young and Clarkson:

I pray these pics go viral because THIS is the problem with little boys. Five minutes ago, at the intersection of Melrose and La Bre here in LA, a jeep of four boys pulled up at a red light and started yelling and making the most disgustingly vulgar gestures at my mom and me. I rarely “rant” about things but this is the f%+#ing problem and the reason I’ve now dedicated my life to educating young men about respect, not just for women but for everyone. I’m angry. I’m insulted. I’m hurt. They were laughing hysterically until they realized I was filming them and immediately they panicked like the cowards they are. Thank you to all the real men out there who would never treat a mother and daughter that way… Speaking of, I’d love for this to make it back to their mothers!!! Help me find who these guys are!!! Let’s see the power of social media and hold them accountable. I’d LOVE to have a candid conversation with them about sexual harassment not simply to shame them, but to understand their mentality so we can better educate young men to be respectful in the future. #littleboys #cowards #realmenrespectwomen #messedwiththewrongchick #wewillfindyou @iamthatgirl

Lakers spokesman John Black acknowledged they were looking into the matter and take it “very seriously.”

Young appears to have deleted a tweet where he wrote “aye if you want some attention take a pic of me and say anything next to it and post…the world we live in.”
