"Woo! Two in a row!" Young says before introducing himself as "Swaggy P," a nickname he believes God bestowed upon him. 

Young eventually takes the mic and begins asking Hill questions about his performance, which included a team-high 22 points and 13 rebounds. "Was today tough? Did you think you was going to pass Nick in scoring today?" Young asks Hill.

After Hill said he felt that he was in a good rhythm and that he played hard, Young turned the conversation toward himself. "What did you think about Nick Young?," Young asks in the third person. "He's been playing great in my eyes."

It seems likely this isn't the last time we'll see Swaggy P partake in one of his teammates' interviews this season.
