Professional basketball player Nick Young signed a four-year, $21.5 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2014, so he can buy just about buy any car he wants, but instead of dishing out $3.5 million for a Bugatti Veyron like boxer Floyd Mayweather; Young opted instead for a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.

Young, who goes by the nickname of Swaggy P, shared pictures of his Wrangler Unlimited via Instagram and he looks quite happy with his purchase.

Good win … Way to be NSync out there

Young is probably smiling because the 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited comes standard with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, which pumps out 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque.

In contrast, Young’s girlfriend—rapper Iggy Azalea—prefers her Mercedes-Benz G-Class, which she sometimes allows Swaggy P to take pictures in. The G-Class features a price tag of $119,900 and it’s available with a 621-horsepower V12 engine.

The 30-year-old Young is currently experiencing a down year with the Lakers, as he is only averaging 8.2 points per game and is shooting just 37 % from the field.

Maybe Young should drive his beloved Wrangler Unlimited–or Iggy’s G-Class– to the Lakers’ practice facility and work on his jump shot, so that his next contract can be just as rewarding as the deal he signed two years ago.
