With a new tattoo of Tupac Shakur on his right arm, Young will look to rebound from a poor season. After suffering the worst shooting percentage of his career, there were rumors of the Lakers trying to trade him this off-season. However, after reportedly meeting with general manager Mitch Kupchak, he ‘feels comfortable’ he will remain in Los Angeles to start the 2015-16 season.
