Young and Clarkson accused of sexual harassment 

Post#1 » by The Skyhook » Mon Mar 21, 2016 11:37 pm

The Los Angeles Lakers are investigating allegations that two of their players sexually harassed two women Sunday night in Hollywood. One of the women is Alexis Jones, an activist trying to stop athletes from committing sexual harassment, sexual abuse and domestic violence.


Jones said that after dinner, she and her 68-year-old mother stopped their vehicle at the intersection, where a Jeep with four men pulled up alongside them. According to Jones, the men inside the Jeep began making "vulgar, sexual" gestures toward her mother.

She even posted a picture of them on her Instagram while they were in the car

Sexual harassment makes it sound really bad. I was expecting something worse than gawking at some girls in the car. But still immature thing to do.

In her IG post, she claims she recorded a video. Why not post the video? until then, I don't buy any of it

We should have waived young a long time ago. Clarkson is probably guilty by association.

Good to see that our organization called her and took steps in the right direction with her. Black doing a good job as a PR or whatever he is.

Young and Clarkson showing some low IQ. Didn't expect this type of things from Clarkson. Shame...

Yeah, but the Lakers would rather pay him for 2 more years than 5 years.

I don't think its fair to either party to pass judgement until all the facts are out but this was the perfect storm for something like this to happen.

Looks like Nick Young deleted the tweet claiming that the lady took a picture and just fabricated the story.

Coincidence that a harassment activist happens to make these claims? We'll see when both sides come out

Why she tagged them if she doesn't know who they were?

She says she has video so if this is true, it should be easy to prove. Until we have more evidence, I'll hold off on reaching any conclusions.

This is quite laughable. But I would love to hear JC and NY side of the story before I comment.

Personally, I don't believe a word of it. I think it's BS.

We don't have to use the stretch provision, just waive him. Basically pay him to stay the **** away from the team.

I'm having second thoughts about Clarkson. Someone on this forum said a while ago, that he was acting and sounding like Nick Young. Now we know why. Very disappointed that he is not smart enough and does not have the common sense not to hang out with Nick Young. I always thought that the Lakers player Clarkson was hanging with was D'Angelo.

I doesn't matter. In Clarkson, we have a young player who doesn't not have the intelligence, judgement and common sense not to hangout with Nick Young, that's a problem for me.
