Matt Barnes can certainly empathize with Nick Young.
The Grizzlies player took to social media and applied Young's current ugly situation with fiancée Iggy Azalea to his own life in hilarious fashion.
The Lakers forward's relationship with the Australian rapper is on the ropes after a video filmed by teammate D'Angelo Russell leaked out, revealing that Young has been cheating on his significant other.
Many people believe Russell filming Young without his knowledge broke the bro code and it's a scandal that has rocked the Lakers during this dreadful season.
Barnes apparently also believes that Russell violated the rules of true friendship. The Grizzlies role player is in a heated war with his former teammate, ex-Knicks coach Derek Fisher over dating his ex-wife, former "Basketball Wives" star Gloria Govan.
Amid the drama between Young, Russell and Azalea, Barnes took to Instagram to share a meme of an oblivious Fisher not understanding how Russell broke the bro code. It was an obvious dig at his former teammate:
There has been plenty of tension between Barnes and the new couple. The ex-teammates engaged in a physical altercation back in October when Barnes first found out that Fisher was with his wife at a party hosted at her house
A few months later, Govan was still trying to keep her relationship with Fisher on the down low by deleting a photo showing her and Fisher in a group shot while getting ready for a flight to go away for her 30th birthday. Last month, that was all thrown out the window as the couple was seen publicly displaying their affection for each other.
Prior to Fisher being fired from the Knicks on Feb. 8, Barnes didn't mince words when talking about how he hoped to fight him one more time.
"I know I got to keep my mouth shut because then he'll run and tell," Barnes said about Fisher in January during the lead up to a Grizzlies-Knicks game via The New York Daily News prior to Fisher's firing. "So we're focused on playing that team [the Knicks]. And when I'm retired, him and I will cross paths again."
Even if he doesn't get a chance to own him physically, Barnes certainly has his troll game on point when it comes to social media.
