What exactly does that have to do with his playing ability? Since when is the NBA concerned about a player’s image?

When you stab a teammate in the back it’s not great for team chemistry.
Lakers suck anyway.

If he's being shunned by his teammates (and reportedly he is), it has quite an impact on his playing ability. A player who is not trusted by his current team and will not be trusted by players on other teams has a limited future in the NBA - and this kid was the 2nd overall draft pick of the 2015 draft, not some throwaway. Could be a huge problem for the Lakers hopes of rebuilding.

hard to play with a broken ankle, blown out knee. Stuff happens, it's a fast paced sport.

Opps, sorry bout that. My bad..... /s
