Does the nickname have the strength to stick?

As long as Jordan Clarkson re-signs after this season, the Los Angeles Lakers will have a nice, young backcourt of Clarkson and D'Angelo Russell that we should be talking about for years to come. So, if you ever get tired of referring to both of them by their respective names in the near future, Jordan is here to help.

While there are no specifics into the origins of their nickname, we can't help but wonder if Nick Young a.k.a. Swaggy P had anything to do with this. Also, we really hope Kobe Bryant was nearby to hear Clarkson's remark, so he can hit him with this look afterwards.
