The Nick Young meme, also known as 'Confused Nick Young,' features a screengrab of the NBA player (nicknamed Swaggy P) looking bewildered with floating question marks around his head. The image originated from a 2014 episode of the web series 'Thru The Lens,' where Young's mother describes him as a 'clown' during his childhood. The reaction captured Young's genuine confusion at the comment. It quickly became the internet's go-to visual for expressing utter disbelief or lack of understanding, remaining a staple in reaction image culture for over a decade.
