New York Knicks' Brandon Jennings seems to have a little issue about Los Angeles Lakers' D'Angelo Russell on his Twitter quote retweet of Jennings answering several questions.

It all started with the question, "Do you think D'Angelo Russell can be an All-Star?" and the New York Knicks' point guard, Brandon Jennings quote replied, "Dude is a Great Hooper, but I don't respect a snitch", now a deleted tweet.

Yes, Brandon Jennings called D'Angelo Russell a snitch, and it all began with his posted video. As per Complex, Russell 'accidentally' posted a video on Snapchat regarding his Los Angeles Lakers teammate, Nick Young cheating on his fiancée Iggy Azalea.

D'Angelo Russell's Snapchat was hacked, basing on Alex Kennedy's tweet, "League sources say D'Angelo Russell was recording Nick Young on Snapchat and his account was hacked." Hence, Snapchat only allows 10 second videos and the 'snitched' video runs 45 seconds.

Bleacher Report's Senior Writer, Kevin Ding says that DA and Nick had been joking around, they were trying to prank each other, and it obviously went too far. They have learned the hard way. The video went out and that is a huge baggage for both DA and Nick to carry. D'Angelo, especially, is realizing that you can't dance around and think that you can get away with serious matters. A lot of people are watching everything you're doing, especially he's already on a professional sports scene.

Truly, D'Angelo Russell broke the 'Bro Code' against Nick Young and New York Knicks' Brandon Jennings did not like that, not one bit. Los Angeles Lakers even isolated the case to focus on their post season game since it happened in early chapter of 2016, since it might do a life-long damage on Lakers chemistry.
